Pneumatic Gripper

Updated: Dec 29, 2023

A gripper is used to hold, position and move a workpiece. A gripper represents the connection between the workpiece and the industrial robot. It is also called as Mechanical Gripper.


A pneumatic gripper is a pick-and-place device that uses compressed air to operate gripper jaws, also called fingers. These fingers, similar to human fingers, help in grasping, holding and releasing the work pieces. Commonly, they have 2 fingers (parallel or angular) or 3 fingers with a single or double acting cylinder for control. They are mostly used in automated manufacturing processes to grip a work piece. The work pieces can range from small objects like circuit boards or chips to large objects like an engine block.
