The EASY-20 electric gripper aims to outperform other grippers in environments that lack traditional pneumatic systems. Intended for applications in high-speed automated manufacturing, the EASY-20’s roughly 50-millisecond closing speed makes it market competitive. The gripper’s on-board electronics also allow the user to easily operate and integrate the device with nearly any existing system.
