FOUK designs and manufactures the full spectrum of industrial pneumatic grippers — from compact CNC jaw grippers to 800 kg heavy-duty pneumatic robot grippers. Powered by our proprietary 3-tooth toothed guide rail, every gripper delivers higher rigidity, longer service life, and repeatable precision across millions of cycles.
A pneumatic gripper is a compressed-air-actuated end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) device that opens and closes its jaws to grip, hold, orient, and release workpieces in automated manufacturing and robotic systems. When pressurised air enters the actuator, the jaws close to grip; reversing airflow or venting pressure causes them to open.
Industrial pneumatic grippers are the workhorses of factory automation. Their force-to-weight ratio is unmatched by electric alternatives at equivalent cost, and their fast actuation speeds make them ideal for high-cycle-rate applications in automotive, electronics, food processing, and heavy manufacturing.
1. Aviation-Grade Aluminum Housing
High-load capacity with minimal weight — preserving robot arm payload budget for the workpiece rather than the gripper itself. Critical for pneumatic robot gripper applications where robot rated payload is the constraint.
2. High-Temperature & Corrosion Engineering
FOUK pneumatic grippers can be specified with anti-corrosion coatings, dust-proof structural sealing, and heat-resistant alloy jaw inserts — validated for environments up to 1,200 °C in wheel hub forging applications.
3. Integrated Sensor Architecture
Magnetic and inductive sensor slots are designed into every FOUK industrial pneumatic gripper series, enabling open/close position feedback and part-present detection for seamless PLC and robot controller integration.
4. Smallest Form Factor in Class
The FZ-series parallel pneumatic gripper holds the smallest footprint in the industry for its specification range — enabling integration in tight CNC turret and gantry configurations where larger competitors cannot fit.
Industrial pneumatic grippers and pneumatic robot grippers from FOUK serve demanding sectors across global manufacturing.
1. CNC Machine Tool Automation
Parallel pneumatic grippers for lathe and machining centre load/unload operations. Smallest footprint in the industry for 0–15 kg part handling. Cutting-fluid and chip-resistant sealing standard.
2. Die Casting & Forging
High-temperature-resistant pneumatic grippers for aluminum and steel die casting, with special anti-corrosion coatings for alkaline mold-release environments and abrasive metal dust exposure up to 1,200 °C.
3. Industrial Robotics & EOAT
Full-range pneumatic robot gripper solutions for 6-axis robot arms and collaborative robots. Sensor-ready for automated cell integration.
4. Monocrystalline Silicon Manufacturing
TJ-series heavy-duty pneumatic robot grippers with 800 kg validated payload, serving the world's largest monocrystalline silicon production base for large-rod crystal ingot lifting and transport.
5. Truss & Frame Automation Systems
Truss plate-type and frame shaft-type grasping units for overhead automated handling lines. Combined with quick-change modules and flexible compensation units for versatile multi-product production.
6. Automotive & Assembly
Parallel and angular pneumatic grippers for automotive body, powertrain, and chassis assembly lines. Internal and external clamping configurations for complex part geometries. High repeatability for tight assembly tolerances.
7. Electronics & Precision Assembly
Miniature parallel pneumatic grippers for PCB, semiconductor, and precision component handling. Low actuation force variants available for delicate part gripping without deformation risk.
8. Custom & Specialist Environments
FOUK engineers custom pneumatic grippers for any operating environment — including cleanroom, potentially explosive atmospheres, food processing with washdown requirements, and subsea or high-humidity installations.
Whether you need a standard industrial pneumatic gripper from our catalogue or a fully custom pneumatic robot gripper engineered for your robot cell — FOUK's application engineers are ready to help. Consultation is free, response is within 24 hours.
