Gripping Technology

Angular Grippers

Angular gripping modules for applications where jaw motion, clearance, part access or fixture layout requires a pivoting gripping approach.

Engineering Overview

Start with the application, workpiece and machine context.

Angular grippers are considered when the workpiece, machine space or access direction benefits from jaw rotation rather than purely linear jaw travel. Use this page to compare application conditions before model selection, CAD request or RFQ.

For model-level selection, share the application context, target model or drawing. GRANITY can then confirm the supported CAD, datasheet or quotation path for the project.

Typical Applications

Typical manufacturing situations for this family.

Machine loading where clearance is limited

Review the approach angle, available jaw swing space and collision risk before assuming a linear gripper will fit.

Assembly handling with angled access

Use application photos or CAD to clarify whether the part must be accessed from the side, corner or constrained fixture area.

Fixture loading and unloading

Check how the angular jaw path clears nests, guarding and adjacent tooling during loading and unloading.

Small-part transfer with defined jaw path

Use the part shape and fixture pocket to decide whether angular motion solves the access problem better than parallel motion.

Packaging and orientation tasks

Share orientation and packaging constraints so engineering can review whether the motion path is practical.

Key Advantages

Where engineers use this family first.

Pivoting jaw motion for constrained access

Supports applications where access direction matters as much as gripping force or stroke.

Useful option when straight approach is difficult

Helps compare jaw-path clearance, mounting envelope and product-family fit before CAD review.

Prepared for application-specific finger concepts

Gives integrators a clear discussion path when a compact gripper must work around fixtures or guarding.

Clear path to engineering review before RFQ

Keeps CAD requests tied to access geometry and available product data instead of generic selection.

Product Range Overview

Range structure prepared for engineering review.

Compact angular gripper candidates

Compact candidates will be organized around constrained access, fixture clearance and jaw-swing envelope as engineering data becomes available.

Radial-style gripper candidates

Radial or angular-motion candidates will be added only after jaw path, mounting and documentation details are confirmed.

Application-specific finger candidates

Finger candidates will connect to real part geometry and access direction rather than generic model promises.

Sensor and mounting accessory candidates

Accessory options will be added as mounting, sensing and documentation details become available.

Selection Guide

Prepare the details engineers need to check.

Use angular grippers when the motion path, workpiece access or compact fixture envelope needs a controlled opening angle.

Angular Grippers selection review context
Jaw swing and clearance

Share the opening path, fixture pocket and nearby collision-sensitive areas.

Workpiece access

Confirm edge access, part orientation, gripping surface and available contact area.

Mounting direction

Include robot or actuator orientation, available envelope and finger approach direction.

FAQ

Angular Grippers questions.

Can GRANITY help select the right product family?

Yes. Send workpiece, machine, robot, fixture or target model information and GRANITY will connect you with engineering support.

Are model-level specifications available?

For model-level selection, share the application context, target model or drawing. GRANITY can then confirm the supported CAD, datasheet or quotation path for the project.

Can I request CAD or a datasheet before selecting an exact model?

Yes. CAD and datasheet requests are supported through engineering review. File availability depends on current product documentation status.

Can I submit an RFQ without final model data?

Yes. Submit application, quantity, country and timeline through the RFQ form so GRANITY can review the quotation request and required technical data.
