Festo 2 Finger Double Acting Action Pneumatic Gripper, HPPF-12-12-A, Parallel Gripping Type

This pneumatic gripper is a compact, parallel robot end effector designed to handle small components in automated systems. It operates with bidirectional actuation to open and close its two fingers, providing controlled grasping for pick-and-place and assembly tasks. The unit is intended for integration into industrial automation, electronics handling and mechanical assembly stations where space and cycle reliability are important.

• 12mm bore delivers consistent gripping force for small parts
• Parallel finger arrangement ensures stable workpiece alignment
• 12mm stroke allows precise short-travel gripping actions
• 120.3N gripping force supports secure external and internal holds
• 2 Hz maximum cycle rate enables moderate high-speed operation
• M5 port permits straightforward pneumatic connection

• Suitable for pick-and-place of electronic components on conveyors
• Ideal for small-part assembly in electrical cabinet production
• Used with robotic arms as a Compact end effector for sub-assembly
• Can be used for handling delicate internal or external grips in test stations

It is rated to operate between -10 °C and +60 °C, allowing use in typical manufacturing environments and conditioned workcells.

As a double-acting device, it requires pressurisation for both opening and closing, enabling predictable stroke control and Faster switching compared with spring-return units.

It meets RoHS requirements and conforms to VDMA24364 zone III, aligning it with standard industrial materials and zone-specific handling criteria.

Maximum operating pressure is 7 bar, which achieves designed gripping force and response without exceeding component limits.
