This model code Parameter Details HFTP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; single acting, normally open 32 32 mm nominal bore N Through-hole jaw attachment Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 32 mm Actuation single acting, normally open Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.25–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 60 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 90 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP32 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG; H profile: CMSH / DMSH / EMSH. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 343 N Pitch moment Mp 3 N·m Yaw moment My 3 N·m Roll moment Mr 6 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

The parts list describes construction; it is not a supplied spare-parts kit or an independent ordering list. Accessories and configuration boundaries Custom workpiece fingers mount to the current jaw attachment holes. The jaw suffix selects the factory attachment form; the drawings of fixture fingers do not establish a separately supplied accessory kit. Match screw threads, engagement depth and tightening torque to this bore and jaw form. Mounting screws and tightening limits Parameter Details Rear mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Front threaded mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Side mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Jaw attachment M6×1; maximum 4.9 N·m The mounting method names above refer to cylinder-body attachment. Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

Match the sensor to the corresponding body groove. A final -H on a CMS order code selects the high-temperature reed version, independently of the H/G mounting profile. CMSH/CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSH/DMSG and EMSH/EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSH/DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSH and A05-CMSG also exclude the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSH-W/DMSG-W have direct leads only; the listed EMSH-W/EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSH/CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected H- or G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time. PC4M5: M5×0.8 male × 4 mm tube ODStraight connection at the M5 valve A port; at P only when the supply uses the same tube OD; also an alternative at the M5 gripper pressure port PTL4M5B-M: M5×0.8 male × 4 mm tube OD; mini B-typeM5 gripper-port meter-in control for pneumatic jaw closing, instead of the straight fitting; free reverse exhaust for spring opening US98A040025100MBU: polyester polyurethane; 4 mm OD × 2.5 mm ID; blue, 100 m rollOptional straight tubing example; cut to the required installed length UE95A040025100MBU: polyether polyurethane; 4 mm OD × 2.5 mm ID; blue, 100 m rollOptional straight tubing example; cut to the required installed length 3V1M5A, 3V1M5AI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/2220 V AC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5B, 3V1M5BI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/224 V DC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5C, 3V1M5CI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/2110 V AC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5E, 3V1M5EI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/224 V AC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5F, 3V1M5FI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/212 V DC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively BSLM5: M5×0.8 male sintered silencerOptional silencer at the selected 3V1 valve R exhaust port only; never at the gripper working port For a selected 4 mm OD × 2.5 mm ID tube circuit, choose either PC4M5 or PTL4M5B-M at the M5×0.8 gripper pressure port. Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 822 g.

Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 255 N Pitch moment Mp 1.94 N·m Yaw moment My 1.94 N·m Roll moment Mr 3.88 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm.

Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 495 g.

Specifications: HFTP20N is an AirTAC 20 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is single acting, normally open. Through-hole jaw attachment. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFTP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; single acting, normally open 20 20 mm nominal bore N Through-hole jaw attachment Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 20 mm Actuation single acting, normally open Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.25–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 60 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP20 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 147 N Pitch moment Mp 1.32 N·m Yaw moment My 1.32 N·m Roll moment Mr 2.65 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

The parts list describes construction; it is not a supplied spare-parts kit or an independent ordering list. Accessories and configuration boundaries Custom workpiece fingers mount to the current jaw attachment holes. The jaw suffix selects the factory attachment form; the drawings of fixture fingers do not establish a separately supplied accessory kit. Match screw threads, engagement depth and tightening torque to this bore and jaw form.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 295 g.

Specifications: HFTP16N is an AirTAC 16 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is single acting, normally open. Through-hole jaw attachment. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFTP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; single acting, normally open 16 16 mm nominal bore N Through-hole jaw attachment Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 16 mm Actuation single acting, normally open Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.25–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 40 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP16 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 98 N Pitch moment Mp 0.68 N·m Yaw moment My 0.68 N·m Roll moment Mr 1.36 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 170 g.

Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Match the supply connection separately. BKC uses a locking cap, not a push-in end: insert the exact tube fully, tighten the cap and match the actual M3 port seal; no supplied gasket or pre-applied sealant is specified. Install PSA4 in the single working line with its body symbol restricting valve-to-gripper supply for controlled jaw closing and allowing free gripper-to-valve exhaust for spring opening. Its two push-in ends take exact 4 mm OD soft nylon or polyurethane tube; it has no male pipe thread. Start restricted, adjust gradually and lock; a closed setting is not safety isolation. Use the selected branch at 0.35–0.7 MPa and 0–70°C, subject to temperature derating and lower installed-component limits. BKC is rated 0–1 MPa and 0–150°C; the selected PC and PSA parts are rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The BKC minimum temperature limits this branch without changing the gripper body’s −20°C rating. Seat the M5 valve-fitting gasket correctly. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 64 g.

Specifications: HFTP32 is an AirTAC 32 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is single acting, normally open. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFTP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; single acting, normally open 32 32 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 32 mm Actuation single acting, normally open Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.25–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 60 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 90 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP32 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG; H profile: CMSH / DMSH / EMSH. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 343 N Pitch moment Mp 3 N·m Yaw moment My 3 N·m Roll moment Mr 6 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

The parts list describes construction; it is not a supplied spare-parts kit or an independent ordering list. Accessories and configuration boundaries Custom workpiece fingers mount to the current jaw attachment holes. The jaw suffix selects the factory attachment form; the drawings of fixture fingers do not establish a separately supplied accessory kit. Match screw threads, engagement depth and tightening torque to this bore and jaw form.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

Match the sensor to the corresponding body groove. A final -H on a CMS order code selects the high-temperature reed version, independently of the H/G mounting profile. CMSH/CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSH/DMSG and EMSH/EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSH/DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSH and A05-CMSG also exclude the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSH-W/DMSG-W have direct leads only; the listed EMSH-W/EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSH/CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected H- or G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time. PC4M5: M5×0.8 male × 4 mm tube ODStraight connection at the M5 valve A port; at P only when the supply uses the same tube OD; also an alternative at the M5 gripper pressure port PTL4M5B-M: M5×0.8 male × 4 mm tube OD; mini B-typeM5 gripper-port meter-in control for pneumatic jaw closing, instead of the straight fitting; free reverse exhaust for spring opening US98A040025100MBU: polyester polyurethane; 4 mm OD × 2.5 mm ID; blue, 100 m rollOptional straight tubing example; cut to the required installed length UE95A040025100MBU: polyether polyurethane; 4 mm OD × 2.5 mm ID; blue, 100 m rollOptional straight tubing example; cut to the required installed length 3V1M5A, 3V1M5AI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/2220 V AC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5B, 3V1M5BI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/224 V DC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5C, 3V1M5CI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/2110 V AC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5E, 3V1M5EI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/224 V AC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively 3V1M5F, 3V1M5FI: M5×0.8 female P supply, A work and R exhaust ports; normally closed 3/212 V DC direction control; DIN connection / 0.5 m flying leads respectively BSLM5: M5×0.8 male sintered silencerOptional silencer at the selected 3V1 valve R exhaust port only; never at the gripper working port For a selected 4 mm OD × 2.5 mm ID tube circuit, choose either PC4M5 or PTL4M5B-M at the M5×0.8 gripper pressure port. Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 822 g.

Specifications: HFTP25 is an AirTAC 25 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is single acting, normally open. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFTP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; single acting, normally open 25 25 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 25 mm Actuation single acting, normally open Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.25–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 70 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP25 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 255 N Pitch moment Mp 1.94 N·m Yaw moment My 1.94 N·m Roll moment Mr 3.88 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

The parts list describes construction; it is not a supplied spare-parts kit or an independent ordering list. Accessories and configuration boundaries Custom workpiece fingers mount to the current jaw attachment holes. The jaw suffix selects the factory attachment form; the drawings of fixture fingers do not establish a separately supplied accessory kit. Match screw threads, engagement depth and tightening torque to this bore and jaw form. Mounting screws and tightening limits Parameter Details Rear mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Front threaded mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Side mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Jaw attachment M5×0.8; maximum 2.8 N·m The mounting method names above refer to cylinder-body attachment. Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 495 g.

Specifications: HFTP20 is an AirTAC 20 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is single acting, normally open. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFTP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; single acting, normally open 20 20 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 20 mm Actuation single acting, normally open Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.25–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 60 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP20 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 147 N Pitch moment Mp 1.32 N·m Yaw moment My 1.32 N·m Roll moment Mr 2.65 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

The parts list describes construction; it is not a supplied spare-parts kit or an independent ordering list. Accessories and configuration boundaries Custom workpiece fingers mount to the current jaw attachment holes. The jaw suffix selects the factory attachment form; the drawings of fixture fingers do not establish a separately supplied accessory kit. Match screw threads, engagement depth and tightening torque to this bore and jaw form. Mounting screws and tightening limits Parameter Details Rear mounting M5×0.8; maximum 4.5 N·m; maximum engagement 10 mm Front threaded mounting M5×0.8; maximum 4.5 N·m; maximum engagement 10 mm Side mounting M5×0.8; maximum 4.5 N·m; maximum engagement 10 mm Jaw attachment M4×0.7; maximum 1.4 N·m The mounting method names above refer to cylinder-body attachment. Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits.

Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 295 g.

Specifications: HFTP16 is an AirTAC 16 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is single acting, normally open. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFTP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; single acting, normally open 16 16 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 16 mm Actuation single acting, normally open Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.25–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 40 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP16 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 98 N Pitch moment Mp 0.68 N·m Yaw moment My 0.68 N·m Roll moment Mr 1.36 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper. For holding a workpiece using spring force alone, the catalog requires consultation with the manufacturer. The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Use the straight fitting at the valve A port; use it at P only if the supply uses the same tube OD. The mini B-type controller restricts tube-to-gripper supply for pneumatic jaw closing and allows free reverse exhaust for spring opening. This is meter-in control of one working line. The listed PC and PTL parts accept soft nylon or polyurethane tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat M5 sealing gaskets correctly. The PTL recommended 0.05 N·m is cap-rotation torque, not thread-tightening torque; adjust gradually and secure the setting. Use the selected branch at 0.25–0.7 MPa and −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 170 g.

The pneumatic force rating does not establish a spring-only safe holding load.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional single-acting air connections and controls HFTP is single acting: pressure drives jaw closing, and exhausting the working line allows spring opening. Use one working line. The optional direct-acting 3V1 valves are normally closed 3/2: energizing connects P to A; de-energizing blocks P and connects A to R. Normally closed describes the valve supply path, independently of whether the gripper rests open or closed. Select the 1.2 mm valve orifice, tube and installed line length for the required flow and response; these options do not establish achieved cycle frequency or spring-return time.

Match the supply connection separately. BKC uses a locking cap, not a push-in end: insert the exact tube fully, tighten the cap and match the actual M3 port seal; no supplied gasket or pre-applied sealant is specified. Install PSA4 in the single working line with its body symbol restricting valve-to-gripper supply for controlled jaw closing and allowing free gripper-to-valve exhaust for spring opening. Its two push-in ends take exact 4 mm OD soft nylon or polyurethane tube; it has no male pipe thread. Start restricted, adjust gradually and lock; a closed setting is not safety isolation. Use the selected branch at 0.35–0.7 MPa and 0–70°C, subject to temperature derating and lower installed-component limits. BKC is rated 0–1 MPa and 0–150°C; the selected PC and PSA parts are rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The BKC minimum temperature limits this branch without changing the gripper body’s −20°C rating. Seat the M5 valve-fitting gasket correctly. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. In each voltage pair, the first code has a DIN connection and the code ending I has 0.5 m flying leads. AC tolerance is ±15%, DC tolerance ±10%; consumption is 4.5 VA at 220/110 V AC, 5.0 VA at 24 V AC, 3.0 W at 24 V DC or 2.5 W at 12 V DC. The valve is rated 0–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C, IP65 and insulation class B. Its 10 Hz no-load limit is not a loaded gripper-cycle rating. BSLM5 is an optional silencer for the selected valve’s M5 R exhaust only, rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Keep the return exhaust path unobstructed: excess back pressure can prevent spring return. These are separately ordered component options; tube and thread compatibility do not establish a complete validated gripping system. The blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 64 g.

Specifications: HFP32N is an AirTAC 32 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Through-hole jaw attachment. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 32 32 mm nominal bore N Through-hole jaw attachment Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 32 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 60 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 90 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP32 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG; H profile: CMSH / DMSH / EMSH. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 343 N Pitch moment Mp 3 N·m Yaw moment My 3 N·m Roll moment Mr 6 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

The parts list describes construction; it is not a supplied spare-parts kit or an independent ordering list. Accessories and configuration boundaries Custom workpiece fingers mount to the current jaw attachment holes. The jaw suffix selects the factory attachment form; the drawings of fixture fingers do not establish a separately supplied accessory kit. Match screw threads, engagement depth and tightening torque to this bore and jaw form. Mounting screws and tightening limits Parameter Details Rear mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Front threaded mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Side mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Jaw attachment M6×1; maximum 4.9 N·m The mounting method names above refer to cylinder-body attachment. Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed.

Match the sensor to the corresponding body groove. A final -H on a CMS order code selects the high-temperature reed version, independently of the H/G mounting profile. CMSH/CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSH/DMSG and EMSH/EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSH/DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSH and A05-CMSG also exclude the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSH-W/DMSG-W have direct leads only; the listed EMSH-W/EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSH/CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected H- or G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional air connections and electrical direction control These are separately ordered options for a selected 4 mm OD tube circuit, not a supplied or HFP-validated complete kit. Choose the valve flow capacity, tubing and control response for the actual jaw load and required opening/closing time.

The A-type controller restricts gripper-to-tube exhaust and permits free charging. These fittings/controllers take exact 4 mm OD soft nylon or PU tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat the M5 sealing gasket correctly; recommended controller-cap rotation torque is 0.05 N·m, not thread-tightening torque. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory. Select the required switching and loss-of-power behavior; valve memory is not mechanical load retention. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. The final 050/200 means a 0.5/2 m terminal cable, not a DIN plug. AC tolerance is +15%/−10% at 2.0 VA; DC is ±10% at 1.6 W. Connect the selected voltage and control signals according to the valve wiring requirements. The selected 5V100 valve is rated 0.15–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The common operating pressure range of this selected HFP branch is 0.15–0.7 MPa. Keep the selected branch within −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. The two blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not required installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 792 g. This is an estimated reference, not an AirTAC measured product or shipping weight.

Specifications: HFP25N is an AirTAC 25 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Through-hole jaw attachment. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 25 25 mm nominal bore N Through-hole jaw attachment Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 25 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 70 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP25 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 255 N Pitch moment Mp 1.94 N·m Yaw moment My 1.94 N·m Roll moment Mr 3.88 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

The parts list describes construction; it is not a supplied spare-parts kit or an independent ordering list. Accessories and configuration boundaries Custom workpiece fingers mount to the current jaw attachment holes. The jaw suffix selects the factory attachment form; the drawings of fixture fingers do not establish a separately supplied accessory kit. Match screw threads, engagement depth and tightening torque to this bore and jaw form. Mounting screws and tightening limits Parameter Details Rear mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Front threaded mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Side mounting M6×1; maximum 7 N·m; maximum engagement 12 mm Jaw attachment M5×0.8; maximum 2.8 N·m The mounting method names above refer to cylinder-body attachment. Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional air connections and electrical direction control These are separately ordered options for a selected 4 mm OD tube circuit, not a supplied or HFP-validated complete kit.

The A-type controller restricts gripper-to-tube exhaust and permits free charging. These fittings/controllers take exact 4 mm OD soft nylon or PU tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat the M5 sealing gasket correctly; recommended controller-cap rotation torque is 0.05 N·m, not thread-tightening torque. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory. Select the required switching and loss-of-power behavior; valve memory is not mechanical load retention. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. The final 050/200 means a 0.5/2 m terminal cable, not a DIN plug. AC tolerance is +15%/−10% at 2.0 VA; DC is ±10% at 1.6 W. Connect the selected voltage and control signals according to the valve wiring requirements. The selected 5V100 valve is rated 0.15–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The common operating pressure range of this selected HFP branch is 0.15–0.7 MPa. Keep the selected branch within −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. The two blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not required installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 468 g. This is an estimated reference, not an AirTAC measured product or shipping weight.

Specifications: HFP20N is an AirTAC 20 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Through-hole jaw attachment. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 20 20 mm nominal bore N Through-hole jaw attachment Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 20 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 60 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP20 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 147 N Pitch moment Mp 1.32 N·m Yaw moment My 1.32 N·m Roll moment Mr 2.65 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper.

The A-type controller restricts gripper-to-tube exhaust and permits free charging. These fittings/controllers take exact 4 mm OD soft nylon or PU tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat the M5 sealing gasket correctly; recommended controller-cap rotation torque is 0.05 N·m, not thread-tightening torque. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory.

Specifications: HFP16N is an AirTAC 16 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Through-hole jaw attachment. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 16 16 mm nominal bore N Through-hole jaw attachment Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 16 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 40 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP16 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 98 N Pitch moment Mp 0.68 N·m Yaw moment My 0.68 N·m Roll moment Mr 1.36 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional air connections and electrical direction control These are separately ordered options for a selected 4 mm OD tube circuit, not a supplied or HFP-validated complete kit. Choose the valve flow capacity, tubing and control response for the actual jaw load and required opening/closing time. Thread and pressure compatibility alone do not establish the catalog maximum operating frequency or gripping performance.

Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional air connections and electrical direction control These are separately ordered options for a selected 4 mm OD tube circuit, not a supplied or HFP-validated complete kit. Choose the valve flow capacity, tubing and control response for the actual jaw load and required opening/closing time. Thread and pressure compatibility alone do not establish the catalog maximum operating frequency or gripping performance.

Insert fully and tighten the cap, matching the actual port seal. No supplied gasket or pre-applied sealant is specified. Install PSA4 inline in each chamber line with its flow symbol restricting gripper-to-valve exhaust and allowing free charging. PC4M5 belongs at the separate M5 valve ports and does not fit the gripper's M3 threads. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory. Select the required switching and loss-of-power behavior; valve memory is not mechanical load retention. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. The final 050/200 means a 0.5/2 m terminal cable, not a DIN plug. AC tolerance is +15%/−10% at 2.0 VA; DC is ±10% at 1.6 W. Connect the selected voltage and control signals according to the valve wiring requirements. The selected 5V100 valve is rated 0.15–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The common operating pressure range of this selected HFP branch is 0.2–0.7 MPa. BKC is rated 0–1 MPa and 0–150°C; PSA4 is rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The selected branch is limited to 0–70°C, subject to temperature derating; this does not change the gripper body’s −20°C rating. PSA4 has two 4 mm tube ends and no male pipe thread; a closed adjustment is not safety isolation. The two blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not required installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 59 g. This is an estimated reference, not an AirTAC measured product or shipping weight.

Specifications: HFP32 is an AirTAC 32 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 32 32 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 32 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 60 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 90 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP32 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG; H profile: CMSH / DMSH / EMSH. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 343 N Pitch moment Mp 3 N·m Yaw moment My 3 N·m Roll moment Mr 6 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

Match the sensor to the corresponding body groove. A final -H on a CMS order code selects the high-temperature reed version, independently of the H/G mounting profile. CMSH/CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSH/DMSG and EMSH/EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSH/DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSH and A05-CMSG also exclude the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSH-W/DMSG-W have direct leads only; the listed EMSH-W/EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSH/CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected H- or G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional air connections and electrical direction control These are separately ordered options for a selected 4 mm OD tube circuit, not a supplied or HFP-validated complete kit. Choose the valve flow capacity, tubing and control response for the actual jaw load and required opening/closing time.

The A-type controller restricts gripper-to-tube exhaust and permits free charging. These fittings/controllers take exact 4 mm OD soft nylon or PU tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat the M5 sealing gasket correctly; recommended controller-cap rotation torque is 0.05 N·m, not thread-tightening torque. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory. Select the required switching and loss-of-power behavior; valve memory is not mechanical load retention. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. The final 050/200 means a 0.5/2 m terminal cable, not a DIN plug. AC tolerance is +15%/−10% at 2.0 VA; DC is ±10% at 1.6 W. Connect the selected voltage and control signals according to the valve wiring requirements. The selected 5V100 valve is rated 0.15–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The common operating pressure range of this selected HFP branch is 0.15–0.7 MPa. Keep the selected branch within −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. The two blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not required installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 792 g. This is an estimated reference, not an AirTAC measured product or shipping weight.

Specifications: HFP25 is an AirTAC 25 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 25 25 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 25 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 70 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP25 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 255 N Pitch moment Mp 1.94 N·m Yaw moment My 1.94 N·m Roll moment Mr 3.88 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter.

The A-type controller restricts gripper-to-tube exhaust and permits free charging. These fittings/controllers take exact 4 mm OD soft nylon or PU tube at 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. Seat the M5 sealing gasket correctly; recommended controller-cap rotation torque is 0.05 N·m, not thread-tightening torque. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory. Select the required switching and loss-of-power behavior; valve memory is not mechanical load retention. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. The final 050/200 means a 0.5/2 m terminal cable, not a DIN plug. AC tolerance is +15%/−10% at 2.0 VA; DC is ±10% at 1.6 W. Connect the selected voltage and control signals according to the valve wiring requirements. The selected 5V100 valve is rated 0.15–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The common operating pressure range of this selected HFP branch is 0.15–0.7 MPa. Keep the selected branch within −20 to +70°C, subject to temperature derating and any lower installed-component limit. The two blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not required installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 468 g. This is an estimated reference, not an AirTAC measured product or shipping weight.

Specifications: HFP20 is an AirTAC 20 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 20 20 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 20 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 60 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP20 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 147 N Pitch moment Mp 1.32 N·m Yaw moment My 1.32 N·m Roll moment Mr 2.65 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm. These are static load limits, not impact ratings. Dimensions for this configuration Linear drawing dimensions are in mm unless a thread or angle is stated. Letter labels retain their meaning in the corresponding catalog view. Only the current action and attachment form are selected; parenthesized single-acting values from the source are resolved to this model.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper.

Seat the M5 sealing gasket correctly; recommended controller-cap rotation torque is 0.05 N·m, not thread-tightening torque. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory.

Specifications: HFP16 is an AirTAC 16 mm mechanical-linkage parallel gripper. It is double acting. Standard jaw. The specification and dimensions below apply to the 2022 catalog configuration identified by the individual code elements. Product Catalog Download Airtac Product Catalog (PDF) Download AirTAC 2022 Sensor and Mounting Compatibility Guide (PDF) For detailed product dimensions and mounting drawings, please download and refer to the PDF catalog. The HFP download contains the complete HFP section from the 2022 Chinese catalog, printed pages 315–318, including specifications and mounting drawings. This model code Parameter Details HFP mechanical-linkage parallel gripper; double acting 16 16 mm nominal bore (jaw code omitted) Standard jaw Design and operating features Mechanical linkage synchronizes the parallel jaws: piston extension closes the jaws and piston retraction opens them. The catalog describes closing force as approximately 20–30% higher than opening force for the linkage design. Use the pressure and gripping-position curves for actual sizing. Technical specifications Parameter Details Nominal bore 16 mm Actuation double acting Working medium Compressed air, filtered through a 40 μm filter element Operating temperature −20 to +70 °C Port thread M5×0.8 Operating pressure 0.15–0.7 MPa Lubrication Cylinder: no oil supply required; grease jaw sliding-contact surfaces as directed Maximum operating frequency 180 cycles/min Maximum gripping-point length L 40 mm Compatible position sensors The 2022 selection information for HFP16 lists G profile: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG. Select the full sensor code for the required output, supply voltage, cable length and connector. Sensors are ordered separately; a matching mounting profile alone does not specify the electrical configuration. Gripping-force and gripping-point selection Select effective gripping force for the actual air pressure, jaw contact position and friction. The catalog uses F ≥ a × m × g / (n × μ), where F is force per jaw, n is the number of contacting jaws, μ is the attachment/workpiece friction coefficient, m is workpiece mass and g = 9.8 m/s². With two jaws and safety factor a = 4, μ = 0.2 requires approximately 10 × m × g per jaw and μ = 0.1 requires 20 × m × g. Allow a larger safety margin for high acceleration or impact; even at higher friction the catalog retains the conservative 10–20 times guideline. Check closing and opening force curves separately. Also check the gripping-point length L and overhang H together against the permitted gripping-range graph. Long or heavy fingers increase inertia even when the static force is sufficient. For very thin workpieces, provide the relief gap shown in the selection drawings to prevent unstable contact or positional offset. Allowable static external loads Parameter Details Vertical load Fv 98 N Pitch moment Mp 0.68 N·m Yaw moment My 0.68 N·m Roll moment Mr 1.36 N·m Moment-load conversion Allowable external force = M / (L × 10⁻³), with M in N·m and lever arm L in mm.

Jaw suffix B, N, F, R, W or M describes the separate jaw attachment geometry. Use the dimensions of the selected jaw rather than treating these suffixes as a body-mount kit. Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional air connections and electrical direction control These are separately ordered options for a selected 4 mm OD tube circuit, not a supplied or HFP-validated complete kit. Choose the valve flow capacity, tubing and control response for the actual jaw load and required opening/closing time.

Installation and safe operation Install a workpiece fall-prevention device wherever loss of circuit pressure could release the load. Do not rely on gripping force alone to keep a suspended part safe. Prevent excessive external force, side load, impact and collision at the end of jaw or machine travel. Leave clearance around the workpiece and attachments throughout opening, transfer and reversal. Keep custom fingers short and light. Align the workpiece with the jaw centerline, and make both contact surfaces engage together where the two-jaw arrangement is used. Do not use the gripper to force an off-center insertion. Hold the jaw with an open-ended wrench when fastening an attachment; do not react the tightening torque through the gripper body. Use the specified screw length and torque to avoid internal damage. Use a flow-control valve to limit opening and closing speed. Commission at reduced pressure and low speed, and verify there is no collision before normal operation. Keep people and loose objects outside the moving envelope. Release the workpiece safely and exhaust the compressed air before removing the gripper.

The G in CMSG/DMSG/EMSG identifies the sensor profile; a final -H on a CMS order code instead selects the high-temperature reed version. CMSG reed sensors are limited to 100 mA, 10 W and 200 Hz, with no internal consumption or leakage. Standard/A05 voltage drop is at most 2.5 V at 100 mA DC; versions with the final -H suffix have no residual voltage or indicator LED. Two-wire DMSG and EMSG require 2.5–100 mA loads, up to 2.8 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 3 mA, 3.5 V and 0.06 mA respectively. NPN/PNP DMSG outputs are rated to 30 V / 200 mA, 6 W and 1,000 Hz. Maximum consumption, residual voltage and leakage are 5 mA, 0.7 V and 0.01 mA respectively. Check controller input compatibility as well as load ratings. Sensor and female-cable endings 020/030/050/100 mean 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 sensors have M8/M12 male connectors on 0.5 m leads; M08010/M08020/M08030 and M12010/M12020/M12030 give 1/2/3 m leads. Select lead length to suit the installation independently of gripper travel. Match female cables to the male connector size and wire count; direct-lead sensors need none. B pinout: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. C pinout: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Check the mating cable and connector ratings separately. A05 flex-resistant robotics cable and A06 oil-resistant flex cable have a recommended minimum bend radius of 19 mm. Both are two-wire direct-lead types, without M8/M12, NPN/PNP or W options; A05-CMSG also excludes the final high-temperature -H suffix. W means waterproof: DMSG-W has direct leads only; the listed EMSG-W options also include connectors. Sensor temperature limits are −10 to +70°C, or −10 to +125°C for CMSG versions with the final -H suffix. The HFP-series gripper remains limited to +70°C. Ordinary, high-temperature and A05 sensors are IP64; W/A06 are IP68. These ratings do not extend to the gripper, connectors or whole assembly; use their common limits. CMS has no protection circuit; DMS/EMS have reverse-polarity and surge protection, and EMS also has temperature-overload protection. Reed, two-wire electronic, NPN and PNP circuits are not interchangeable. Complete and insulate wiring before powering it; keep it separate from power/high-voltage wiring. For direct leads, connect brown and blue in series with the load on two-wire types; do not connect the switch alone across the supply. On three-wire types, brown is positive supply, blue is negative and black is output; connect an NPN load to positive and a PNP load to negative. Install the selected G-profile sensor in the matching sensor groove on the HFP-series body, using its included magnet; no separate sensor mounting bracket is required. Loosen the locking screw so it does not project below the sensor base. Slide the sensor to the required position, then tighten. Set detection at the actuation-range centre. Recommended sensor-screw torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m, never over 0.25 N·m; these are not gripper mounting torques. Prevent impacts; keep cables free of strain and avoid unnecessary movement or bending. Observe the stated bend-radius guidance for flex-resistant versions, and inspect fixings, cables and indication. Keep ordinary sensors dry and do not immerse waterproof types for long periods. Avoid explosive gas, aggressive chemicals, sudden temperature changes, welding interference and magnetic debris. Provide suitable protection for A05 cables exposed to heat, dust, water or oil, and for A06 cables exposed to weld spatter. Optional air connections and electrical direction control These are separately ordered options for a selected 4 mm OD tube circuit, not a supplied or HFP-validated complete kit. Choose the valve flow capacity, tubing and control response for the actual jaw load and required opening/closing time. Thread and pressure compatibility alone do not establish the catalog maximum operating frequency or gripping performance.

Insert fully and tighten the cap, matching the actual port seal. No supplied gasket or pre-applied sealant is specified. Install PSA4 inline in each chamber line with its flow symbol restricting gripper-to-valve exhaust and allowing free charging. PC4M5 belongs at the separate M5 valve ports and does not fit the gripper's M3 threads. The listed 5V100 valves are 5/2 directional valves with M5×0.8 supply P, work A/B and exhaust R/S ports. Keep the two work lines separate and connect them to the gripper's opening and closing ports as required. The 5V110 version is single-solenoid spring return; 5V120 is double-solenoid with memory. Select the required switching and loss-of-power behavior; valve memory is not mechanical load retention. Select one complete valve code for the installed supply. The final 050/200 means a 0.5/2 m terminal cable, not a DIN plug. AC tolerance is +15%/−10% at 2.0 VA; DC is ±10% at 1.6 W. Connect the selected voltage and control signals according to the valve wiring requirements. The selected 5V100 valve is rated 0.15–0.8 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The common operating pressure range of this selected HFP branch is 0.2–0.7 MPa. BKC is rated 0–1 MPa and 0–150°C; PSA4 is rated 0–1 MPa and −20 to +70°C. The selected branch is limited to 0–70°C, subject to temperature derating; this does not change the gripper body’s −20°C rating. PSA4 has two 4 mm tube ends and no male pipe thread; a closed adjustment is not safety isolation. The two blue 100 m tube codes are alternative packaging examples, not required installed lengths. US98A polyester-PU is rated −20 to +70°C and UE95A polyether-PU −40 to +70°C; both are rated 1 MPa at 23°C. Minimum bend radii (US/UE) are 10/8 mm. Apply temperature derating and the lowest component limit.Estimated weight 59 g. This is an estimated reference, not an AirTAC measured product or shipping weight.
