COVAL Now Offers Vacuum Grippers with Communication Interface

Cross is excited to share that COVAL now offers an extended range of grippers with the latest CMS HD series multistage vacuum pumps to meet the demands of Industry 4.0

COVAL’s range of vacuum grippers is based on two complementary solutions. Lightness and great adaptability characterize the CVGL which is available as standard in several lengths, power ratings, and gripping interfaces. The MVG, gives you the option to configure the gripper to allow it to be perfectly adapted to each application by determining the length, width, gripping interface, and vacuum generator while guaranteeing extreme lightness. This means manufacturers can tailor the grippers to their specific needs and integrate them perfectly with their handling robots.

The communicating configuration comes with an IO-Link communication interface, compliant with the international IEC 61131-9 standard, for fast and cost-effective installation, continuous diagnostics, centralized parameterization, and efficient communication with higher-level protocols (EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, EtherCAT, etc.).
