FIPA publishes EOAT catalog

Summary

April 11, 2012 - FIPA publishes 293-pp EOAT catalog. New additions to the catalog include linear components with guide blocks and short-stroke cylinders. “Our range of grippers and pneumatic air nippers now comprises more than 500 components. All of our EOAT components can be combined and optimized with other FIPA quality products quickly and easily”, says Rainer Mehrer, FIPA President and Owner. With the new EOAT catalog, users have a comprehensive reference work for End-of-Arm-Tooling at their disposal. The many new products include linear components, completely new grippers and improvements on the designs of existing gripper lines. The new generation of grippers is just as robust and reliable as the previous one, but lighter and smaller. They still provide just as firm a grip as ever.

The catalog has been printed exclusively on FSC-certified paper. In order to offset the CO2 emissions produced during printing, FIPA is participating in a reforesting project in India. The new additions at a glance:

• Extended range of linear components for precise approach of operational elements towards a workpiece
• Extended range of grippers for safe removal of die-cast components and demolding of parts
• Extended range of manual and automatic air nippers with appropriate blades
• Many new EOAT components, offering our customers even greater flexibility

The bonus: selected vacuum technology components In addition to gripper assembly, FIPA covers the whole process chain of Vacuum technology – from vacuum generation, through monitoring, to the suction cups at the interface with the workpiece. A selection of this extensive range of vacuum technology is also included in the final section of the catalog.
