Summary

HFT Series Wider Air Gripper is Airtac pneumatic gripper line for larger workpieces. It uses double pistons and rack-and-pinion synchronization to increase clamping force and keep gripper fingers aligned during opening and closing.

Overview

HFT Series Wider Air Gripper is Airtac pneumatic gripper line for larger workpieces. It uses double pistons and rack-and-pinion synchronization to increase clamping force and keep gripper fingers aligned during opening and closing.

Market context

Wide-opening pneumatic gripper for larger industrial workpieces and synchronized jaw motion.

• Target environment: Industrial automation cells, robot arms, fixture handling and production-line pick/place
• Workflow context: Pneumatic gripping, workpiece handling and end-effector actuation
• Customer context: Integrators needing a practical air gripper rather than an electric or dexterous-hand end-effector.
• Deployment model: Commercial pneumatic gripper for industrial automation cells and robot end-effector integration.
• Commercial maturity: Commercial product page with public feature-level specifications; model-level force/stroke values should be checked in the full AirTAC catalog.
• Adoption constraints: Requires pneumatic supply, valve/control integration, mechanical sizing and workpiece-specific grip-force validation.
• Adjacent products: Robotiq 3-Finger Adaptive Gripper, CKD GCKW 3-Finger Gripper, Unitree Dex1-1, suction gripper families
