PHD is pleased to announce the release of theClick & GripAdjustable Gripper Tooling kits! Click & Grip kits are available for an immediate tooling solution and are currently offered on five different PHD pneumatic grippers to cover a wide variety of applications. This tooling is a segmented design constructed of3D-printed, lightweight polyamide plastic, ideal for cobot applications.The easy adjustability of the segments makes set-up and proof of concept fast and efficient and provides the flexibility with interchangeable components.

In this release, we are introducing the newClick & GripCatalog which contains all the technical information and dimensions for these kits. Additionally, an updated version of thePneu-Connectcatalog is now available which provides a brief overview of Click & Grip and the new part numbers to include the appropriate kits with the package.
The Click & Grip kits can also be ordered separately for the specific PHD Grippers.
