Magnet End Effectors

Sometimes gripper jaws are not the right solution for your parts because a squeeze might damage them, or their shape doesn’t provide a good latching feature.  If your parts are made of steel, magnets could be a good alternative for moving your parts.  Magnets can grab thin parts, heavy parts, round parts, and large parts and can be customized to allow for destacking sheets and moving heavy weldments in the same cell.
