RAF56N Centric Rotary Pneumatic Gripper
High-Precision 3-Jaw Rotary Gripper for Automated Pick-and-Place Applications
RAF56N Centric Rotary Pneumatic Gripper combines precise centric gripping with integrated rotary motion, providing reliable handling for high-speed automation, assembly and material handling applications
The JRT RAF56N Centric Rotary Pneumatic Gripper, available from BIBUS (UK) Ltd, is a high-performance automation solution that combines precise three-jaw centric gripping with integrated rotary motion in a single compact unit. Designed to simplify automated handling processes, the RAF56N eliminates the need for separate gripping and rotary actuators, helping machine builders reduce installation space, minimise system complexity and improve overall productivity.
Engineered with a robust wedge cam mechanism and timing belt drive, the RAF56N delivers smooth, synchronised jaw movement and consistent rotary positioning, ensuring exceptional gripping accuracy and repeatability throughout demanding production cycles. Its durable aluminium construction, high gripping force and reliable pneumatic operation make it suitable for continuous industrial use, even in fast-paced manufacturing environments.
