Compact Automation - Workholding Products

Compact workholding products are designed for use in industrial applications such as robotics, automated assembly and manipulator/tooling. All units feature self-contained, double-acting Compact actuators. All models feature low unit weight, high output and compact size.

Magnetic Grippers

Compact magnetic grippers are great for picking up ferromagnetic materials such as iron or steel in applications where other types of grippers and vacuum cups are currently being utilized.

Angular Grippers

Our angular gripper represents the lowest cost design. The air cylinder is an integral component of the overall gripper length. The piston actuator pushes the cam, or yoke, forward, rocking/pivoting the jaws open.

Parallel Gripper

Parallel motion grippers represent a highly versatile and flexible design. The integral pneumatic cylinder pushes the jaws open. The jaws slide along two hardened guide rods providing rigid, long lasting true parallel gripper motion.

CI Series Intensifiers - Pneumatic Intensifier

CI series Compact Intensifiers are simple generic boosters that utilize a large pneumatic piston to intensify oil pressure with a smaller piston. The Product range includes 24 models. All are designed to be highly space efficient and low weight. The pressure chamber features two large full flow ports for easy filling and bleeding.

Twist Cylinder (Pneumatic Clamp Cylinders)

Twist Cylinders are linear motion cylinders with internal cams that provide 90º swing motion. Twist cylinders are ideal swing clamps for automated and semi-automated assembly.

Collet Closer

Collet closer are used worldwide in the metalworking industry for their high accuracy and high output gripping of tools and work pieces. Compact Automation Products has chosen 3 popular collet sizes: 1C, 3C and 5C to design our space efficient collet fixtures around.
