Supports work holding robustly, with light movement, and is strong against repeated opening and closing actions.
The THK electric actuator Economy Series EG can securely grip workpieces by pinching or holding from the inside, depending on the shape of the mounting claw, even in postures where moments are applied. It is used in the hand parts of vertical multi-joint robots that require stable gripping under moment loads, as well as in the end effectors (hand parts) of Cartesian multi-axis robots that require actions such as pinching, gripping, and holding from the inside. Additionally, the related links provide more detailed product descriptions, product catalogs, user manuals, 2D and 3D CAD files, selection materials, and a wealth of technical information. Please take a look at those as well.

basic information
1. A structure that is lightly movable and strong against repeated opening and closing actions. The LM guide achieves smooth operation and high rigidity. By combining a small lead screw and a reduction mechanism, high positioning and gripping force can be achieved with a small motor's driving power. 2. Maintains gripping force even during power outages. Due to the mechanism that keeps the opening and closing parts in position, gripping force can be sustained. *Manual release of the opening and closing can be performed. 3. Motor specifications and non-motor options are available. The motor specifications include both stepping motors and servo motors, allowing for selection based on application needs.
