Model Overview & Print Notes

The HFD8 is a compact air gripper from the HFD Series, designed for precise and reliable gripping of small workpieces in space-constrained automated handling, assembly, and pick-and-place applications. With an 8 mm bore size and a compact, low-profile body, it delivers efficient gripping force relative to its small size, making it ideal for handling micro components in electronics manufacturing, precision assembly, medical device production, and general factory automation where installation space is extremely limited. The HFD Series features a robust aluminum alloy body with hardened steel jaws and high-quality seals for long service life and dependable performance in high-cycle operations. The parallel jaw design ensures uniform gripping force across the entire stroke, minimizing workpiece distortion and enabling secure handling of fragile or precision parts. The compact construction of the HFD8 allows it to be mounted in very tight spaces close to the workpiece, reducing the need for long finger attachments and improving gripping accuracy. Designed for versatility, the HFD Series air gripper supports multiple mounting configurations, including side, bottom, and flange mounting, and is compatible with a range of accessories such as finger attachments, adaptor plates, and speed controllers. Integrated sensor slots allow easy mounting of position detection switches for open/close confirmation. Its lightweight construction reduces payload on robotic arms and linear actuators, improving cycle times and energy efficiency. Well-suited for demanding industrial environments where accurate and reliable gripping of small workpieces is essential, the HFD8 delivers a compact, efficient, and versatile solution for maintaining productivity and quality in automated handling and assembly operations.
