Festo 2 Finger Pneumatic Gripper, HEPP-28-30-PN, Parallel Gripping Type

This pneumatic gripper is an end effector designed to provide controlled parallel gripping in automated systems. It operates within standard industrial temperature ranges and is suited to pick-and-place, assembly and handling tasks where precise bidirectional gripping is required. The device is compatible with pneumatic actuation and integrates into robotic and automation setups for both internal and external gripping operations.

• Parallel motion with 30mm stroke for precise workpiece positioning
• Two-finger configuration for Compact gripping of components
• External gripping capacity 320 N for robust external holds
• Internal gripping capacity 680 N for secure internal clamping
• Rated operating range 0–50 °C for typical factory environments
• Lightweight construction at 1400 g to reduce payload strain

• Suitable for pick-and-place of electronic modules on production lines
• Ideal for automated assembly of electrical components
• Used with cobots for handling small mechanical parts
• Can be used for inserting or extracting cylindrical components
• Used for end-of-arm tooling in machine-tending operations

It carries UKCA, CE and RoHS markings indicating conformity with regional safety, health and environmental directives.

It employs two fingers arranged in a parallel configuration to clamp both internal and external surfaces.

At 1400 g, it minimises additional payload, allowing tighter compliance with robot payload limits and conserving cycle energy.

Internal gripping provides higher holding force than external gripping, which guides selection based on whether the application requires internal expansion or external compression.
