The eRDH series electric parallel gripper, the latest addition to the manufacturer’s Robohand product line, offers precision, flexibility, and ease of use.

eRDH grippers integrate four teachable sensors, speed control, force control, and selectable internal or external grip configurations to meet evolving needs.

The grippers eliminate the complexity of configuration adjustment and sensor settings with a highly intuitive keypad interface. Operators can fully configure an eRDH including sensor settings in less than one minute. The eRDH requires only a single cable to the PLC for power and discrete control signals.

Built-in jaw locking technology ensures the grip force is maintained even without power, enhancing safety and reliability. The keypad lockout feature prevents unauthorized tampering, while basic diagnostic feedback to PLC systems alerts operators to any fault conditions, mitigating downtime.
