The Zimmer LWR GEP2000 MATCH gripper series is an electric parallel gripper designed for flexible robotic applications. It enables precise handling while simplifying end-of-arm integration.

It offers a large stroke in a compact design. As a result, manufacturers can handle a wider range of parts with one gripper.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Electric parallel gripper designed for MATCH end-of-arm ecosystem
• Large stroke in a compact installation space for flexible applications
• Adjustable gripping force for different part sizes and materials
• IO-Link or digital I/O control for simple integration
• Optional positioning capability for precise jaw control
• Integrated sensors for position and status feedback
• Self-locking mechanism for secure part holding during power loss
• Cleanroom-compatible design for medical and electronics applications
• Up to 10 million maintenance-free cycles for long service life
• Designed for assembly, electronics, and laboratory automation applications

When launching a new gripper or end-of-arm tooling project, In-Position Technologies engineers take a consultative approach. First, they review application requirements. They assess part characteristics. This helps determine the best gripper configuration. Next, the team evaluates the system workflow. This ensures smooth integration with the robot.

Their evaluations include:

• Part size, weight, and geometry
• Required gripping force and stroke length
• Cycle time and throughput requirements
• Mounting and integration constraints

Finally, customers may deploy the Zimmer LWR GEP2000 MATCH gripper series as part of a complete automation solution. In that case, IP Tech engineers help optimize the system.

• They select the correct gripper size and configuration
• They ensure compatibility with MATCH modules and robot platforms
• They verify performance based on application requirements
• They support installation, setup, and long-term operation
