The Kurt Robotic Gripper is an Automation Game Changer

The Kurt RV36 Gripper is the only robotic gripper with quick-change customizable fingers, thus saving you time, space and money. Because there is no need for expensive interface plates and no need to change gripper bodies to pick up and handle multiple part configurations, a single gripper body can perform many different tasks. 

Gripper fingers are swappable and machinable

  • Aluminum finger configuration shows pull studs on fingers.
  • Fingers are machinable. Side reference line indicates safe zone.

Kurt offers machinable aluminum and steel finger sets with pull studs that attach to the gripper body using pneumatic pressure. Gripper fingers have a .6-inch stroke length. To match the shape of the part you need to pick up with the robot, fingers can be machined, allowing grippers to be customized to fit many varied applications. The line on the side of the finger marks how much material can be removed from the fingers without damage, similar to the approach we use with Kurt machinable vise jaws. Gripper fingers can be machined to fit any application as long as safe machining areas are maintained and the project fits within specified limits of the RV36 and the robot.
