• The work piece gripping point distance should be within the gripping force ranges given for each pressure in the effective gripping force graphs below.

• If operated with the work piece gripping point beyond the indicated ranges, an excessive offset load will be applied to the sliding section of the fingers, which can have an adverse effect on the service life of the product.

• Expressing the effective gripping force The effective gripping force shown in the graphs to the right is expressed as F, which is the impellent force of one finger when both of the fingers and attachments are in full contact with the work piece as shown in the figure below.

• The work piece gripping point distance should be within the gripping force ranges given for each pressure in the effective gripping force graphs below.

• If operated with the work piece gripping point beyond the indicated ranges, an excessive offset load will be applied to the sliding section of the fingers, which can have an adverse effect on the service life of the product.

• Expressing the effective gripping forceThe effective gripping force shown in the graphs to the right is expressed as F, which is the impellent force of one finger when all 3 of the fingers and attachments are in full contact with the work piece as shown in the figure below.

• The work piece gripping point distance should be within the gripping force ranges given for each pressure in the effective gripping force graphs below.

• If operated with the work piece gripping point beyond the indicated ranges, an excessive offset load will be applied to the sliding section of the fingers, which can have an adverse effect on the service life of the product.

• Expressing the effective gripping forceThe effective gripping force shown in the graphs to the right is expressed as F, which is the impellent force of one finger when all 3 of the fingers and attachments are in full contact with the work piece as shown in the figure below.

Gripping point• The work piece gripping point distance should be within the gripping force ranges given for each pressure in the effective gripping force graphs below.

• If operated with the work piece gripping point beyond the indicated ranges, an excessive offset load will be applied to the sliding section of the fingers, which can have an adverse effect on the service life of the product.

Effective Gripping Force• Expressing the effective gripping force

The effective gripping force shown in the graphs to the right is expressed as F, which is the impellent force of one finger when all 3 of the fingers and attachments are in full contact with the work piece as shown in the figure below.

• Expressing the effective gripping forceThe effective gripping force shown in the graphs to the right is expressed as F, which is the impellent force of one finger when all four of the fingers and attachments are in full contact with the work piece as shown in the figure below. If only one of the two pairs of opposing fingers are used for gripping work pieces, while the other pair is used for another function such as positioning, the gripping force of the Series MHS4 will be the same as that of the Series MHS2.

• The work piece gripping point distance should be within the gripping force ranges given for each pressure in the effective gripping force graphs below.

• If operated with the work piece gripping point beyond the indicated ranges, an excessive offset load will be applied to the sliding section of the fingers, which can have an adverse effect on the service life of the product.

Connection Examples for AND (Series) and OR (Parallel)

Examples of Connection to PLC

Connect according to the applica-ble PLC input specifications, as the connection method will vary depending on the PLC input spec-ifications.

When two switches are connected in series, a load may malfunction because the load voltage declines when in the ON state.Indicator lights will light up when both switches are in the ON state.

(Solid state)When two switches are connected in parallel, malfunction may occur because the load voltage increases when in the OFF state.

Model selection criteria with respect to work piece weight

• Selecting the MHS2-32D.A gripping force of 92N is obtained from the intersection point of the gripping point distance L=20mm and a pressure of 0.4MPa.

• The gripping force is 23 times greater than the work piece weight, and therefore satisfies a gripping force setting value of 20 times or more.

• Although differences will exist depending on the coefficient of friction between attachments and work pieces, select a model which will provide a gripping force as shown in the table below.(Note 1) Refer to the model selection illustration regardingmultiples of the work piece weight.

• Furthermore, in cases with high acceleration or impact, etc.,it is necessary to allow an even greater margin of safety.Example: When it is desired to set the gripping force at 20 times or more of the work piece weight.Required gripping force = 0.4kg x 20 x 9.8m/s²: Approx. 78.4N or more

the conditions under which the work piece will not drop are

mgF > ———— n x µ

With "a" as the safety margin, F is determined as follows:

a x mgF = ———— n x µ

(Note) • Even in cases where the coefficient of friction is greater than µ = 0.2, for safety reasons, SMC recommends selecting a gripping force which is at least 10 to 20 times the work piece weight.

• It is necessary to allow a greater safety margin for high accelerations and strong impacts, etc.

Safety Instructions

Note 1) ISO 4414: Pneumatic fluid power -- Recommendations for the application of equipment to transmission and control systems

Note 2) JIS B 8370: General Rules for Pneumatic Equipment

Warning

Caution : Operator error could result in injury or equipment damage.

Warning : Operator error could result in serious injury or loss of life.

Danger : In extreme conditions, there is a possible result of serious injury or loss of life.

These safety instructions are intended to prevent a hazardous situation and/or equipment damage. These instructions indicate the level of potential hazard by a label of "Caution", "Warning" or "Danger". To ensure safety, be sure to observe ISO 4414 Note 1), JIS B 8370 Note 2) and other safety practices.

1. The compatibility of pneumatic equipment is the responsibility of the person who designs the pneumatic system or decides its specifications.Since the products specified here are used in various operating conditions, their compatibility for the specific pneumatic system must be based on specifications or after analysis and/or tests to meet your specific requirements.

2. Only trained personnel should operate pneumatically operated machinery and equipment.Compressed air can be dangerous if an operator is unfamiliar with it. Assembly, handling or repair of pneumatic systems should be performed by trained and experienced operators.

3. Do not service machinery/equipment or attempt to remove components until safety is confirmed.

1. Inspection and maintenance of machinery/equipment should only be performed after confirmation of safe locked-out control positions.

2. When equipment is to be removed, confirm the safety process as mentioned above. Cut the supply pressure for this equipment and exhaust all residual compressed air in the system.

3. Before machinery/equipment is restarted, take measures to prevent shooting-out of cylinder piston rod, etc. (Bleed air into the system gradually to create back pressure.)

4. Contact SMC if the product is to be used in any of the following conditions:1. Conditions and environments beyond the given specifications, or if product is used outdoors.2. Installation on equipment in conjunction with atomic energy, railway, air navigation, vehicles, medical

equipment, food and beverages, recreation equipment, emergency stop circuits, press applications, or safety equipment.

3. An application which has the possibility of having negative effects on people, property, or animals, requiring special safety analysis.

Page 73: 2 Finger, 3 Finger, 4 Finger Air Gripper Parallel Type ... · Employs wedge cam construction ... with strong holding force 2 Finger, 3 Finger, 4 Finger Air Gripper Parallel Type Series

1. Keep the holding point with-in the limits of the specified gripping range.When the gripping point distance becomes large, the finger attachments apply an excessively large load to the cross roller section, causing excessive play of the fingers and possibly leading to premature failure. Refer to the graph of the specified gripping distance range for each series.

2. Design attachments to be as light and short as possible.1. Long and heavy attachments in-

crease the inertial force when open-ing and closing the fingers. This may cause unsteady movement of the fin-gers and have an adverse effect on product life.

2. Even with the gripping point within the limits of the range, make the at-tachment as light and short as pos-sible.

3. Select a larger size gripper or use multiple grippers for handling long and large work pieces.

3. Provide run off space in the attachments when using for small or thin work pieces.If run off space is not provided, gripping becomes unstable, and it may fail to grip or the position may slip, etc.

4. Select a model which has sufficient gripping force for the work piece weight.Incorrect selection may lead to drop-ping of work pieces, etc. Refer to the model selection criteria for each series pertaining to effective gripping force and work piece weight.

5. Do not use in applications where excessive external force or impact force will be applied to the gripper.This may cause malfunction. Contact SMC for further information.

6. Select a model having a suf-ficient finger opening width for the work piece.

< In case of insufficient width >1. Gripping becomes unstable due to

variations in opening width or work piece diameter.

2. Causes detection failure when using an auto switch. Ensure a stroke suffi-cient to allow for hysteresis, after re-ferring to the information on auto switch hysteresis for each series.

1. When moving work pieces pose a danger to personnel, or there is a danger of fin-gers being caught in a grip-per, etc., implement safety measures such as mounting of protective covers.

2. If circuit pressure drops due to a power failure or trouble with the air supply, etc., there is a danger of work pieces dropping because of reduced gripping force. Im-plement drop prevention measures to avoid human injury and damage to ma-chinery.

Precautions on Design

Warning1. Do not scratch or gouge the

gripper by dropping or bumping it when mounting.Even a slight deformation can cause in-accuracy or malfunction.

2. Tighten screws within the specified torque range when mounting the attachments.Tightening with a higher torque than specified may cause malfunction, while tightening with a lower torque may allow slipping of the gripping position or drop-ping of work pieces, etc.

3. Perform thorough alignment and assure that excessive force is not applied to the fingers during the work piece gripping operation.Particularly when performing a trial run, operation should be done manually or with low cylinder pressure and speed, while confirming that there is no impact or other unsafe conditions.

4. Adjust with a device such as a speed controller so that the finger closing speed and push rod exten-sion/retraction are no faster than necessary.If the finger closing speed and the push rod extension/retraction speed are greater than necessary, impact forces acting on the fingers and other parts will increase. This will cause a danger of poor work piece gripping re-peatability and an adverse effect on service life.Applicable speed controllersAir gripper directcoupling type: AS1200, M3, M5 AS2200-01, etc.In-line type: AS1000 Series AS1001F, AS2051F, etc.

1. Preparation before pipingBefore piping is connected, it should be thoroughly blown out with air (flushing) or washed to remove chips, cutting oil and other debris from inside the pipe.

2. Wrapping of pipe tapeWhen screwing together pipes and fit-tings, etc., be certain that chips from the pipe threads and sealing material do not get inside the product.Also, when pipe tape is used, leave 1.5 to 2 thread ridges exposed at the end of the threads.

Piping

Caution

1. Do not operate in locations having an atmosphere of cor-rosive gases, chemicals, sea water, water, water vapor, or where contact with any of these may occur.

2. Provide shading in locations which receive direct sunlight.

3. Do not use in locations where vibration or impact occurs.

4. Do not use in locations where radiated heat will be received from nearby heat sources.

5. Attach a cover or other pro-tection in locations where there will be exposure to dust or cutting oil.

6. Contact SMC before using in an environment where ad-verse effects appear particu-larly likely.

Operating Environment

Warning

1. The non-lube type air grip-per is lubricated at the fac-tory, and can be used with-out any further lubrication.In the event that lubrication will be ap-plied, use Class 1 turbine oil (without additives) ISO VG32. Furthermore, once lubrication is applied, it must be continued.If lubrication is later stopped, malfunc-tion can occur due to loss of the original lubricant.

Maintenance

Warning1. Do not allow people to enter

or place objects into the car-rying path of the air gripper.This can cause injury or accidents, etc.

2. Do not put hands, etc., in between the air gripper fin-gers or attachments.This can cause injury or accidents, etc.

3. When removing the air grip-per, first confirm that no work pieces are being held and then release the com-pressed air before removing the air gripper.If a work piece is still being held, there is a danger of it being dropped.

Series MHSAuto Switch Precautions 1Be sure to read before handling.

1. Confirm the specifications.Read the specifications carefully anduse this product appropriately. Theproduct may be damaged or malfunctionif it is used outside the range of specifi-cations for load current, voltage, tem-perature or impact.

2. Take precautions whenmultiple air grippers areused close together.When multiple auto switch air grippersare used in close proximity, magneticfield interference may cause the switch-es to malfunction. Maintain a minimumair gripper separation of 40mm. (Whenthe allowable separation is indicated foreach air gripper series, use the specifiedvalue.)

3. Pay attention to the lengthof time that a switch is ONat an intermediate strokeposition.When an auto switch is placed at anintermediate position of the stroke and aload is driven at the time the pistonpasses, the auto switch will operate, butif the speed is too great the operatingtime will be shortened and the load maynot operate properly. The maximumdetectable piston speed is:

4. Keep wiring as short aspossible.<Solid state switch>Although wire length should not affectswitch function, use a wire 100m orshorter.

5. Take precautions for the in-ternal voltage drop of theswitch.<Solid state switch>Generally, the internal voltage drop willbe greater with a 2 wire solid state autoswitch than with a reed switch.

• Take note that there will be a large volt-age drop if auto switches are connectedin series as shown below. (Refer to inter-nal voltage drop in the auto switch spec-ifications.)

[The voltage drop will be "n" times larg-er when "n" auto switches are connect-ed.]

Design and Selection Mounting & Adjustment

• In the same way, when operating at orbelow a specified voltage, although anauto switch may operate normally, theload may not operate. Therefore, theformula below should be satisfied afterconfirming the minimum operatingvoltage of the load.

Also, note that a 12VDC relay is not ap-plicable.

6. Pay attention to leakagecurrent.<Solid state switch>With a 2 wire solid state auto switch,current (leakage current) flows to theload to operate the internal circuit evenwhen in the OFF state.

If the criteria given in the above formulaare not met, it will not reset correctly(stays ON). Use a 3 wire switch if thisspecification will not be satisfied.

Moreover, leakage current flow to theload will be "n" times larger when "n"auto switches are connected in parallel.

7. Do not use a load that gen-erates surge voltage.<Solid state switch>Although a zener diode for surge protec-tion is connected at the output side of asolid state auto switch, damage may stilloccur if the surge is applied repeatedly.When a load, such as a relay or sole-noid, which generates surge is directlydriven, use a type of switch having abuilt-in surge absorbing element.

8. Cautions for use in aninterlock circuit.When an auto switch is used for an inter-lock signal requiring high reliability,devise a double interlock system toavoid trouble by providing a mechanicalprotection function, or by also usinganother switch (sensor) together withthe auto switch. Also perform periodicmaintenance and confirm proper opera-tion.

9. Ensure sufficient clearancefor maintenance activities.When designing an application, be sureto allow sufficient clearance for mainte-nance and inspections.

1. Do not drop or bump.Do not drop, bump or apply excessiveimpacts (1000m/s² or more for solidstate switches) while handling.

Although the body of the switch may notbe damaged, the inside of the switchcould be damaged and cause a mal-function.

2. Do not carry a cylinder bythe auto switch lead wires.Never carry a cylinder by its lead wires.This may not only cause broken leadwires, but it may cause internal ele-ments of the switch to be damaged bythe stress.

3. Mount switches using theproper tightening torque.When a switch is tightened beyond therange of tightening torque, the mountingscrews, mounting bracket or switch maybe damaged. On the other hand, tight-ening below the range of tighteningtorque may allow the switch to slip out ofposition. (Refer to pages 59 through 65regarding switch mounting, movementand tightening torque, etc.)

1. Avoid repeatedly bendingor stretching lead wires.Broken wires will result from applyingrepeated bending stress or stretchingforce to the lead wires.

2. Be sure to connect the loadbefore power is applied.<2 wire type>If the power is turned ON when an autoswitch is not connected to a load, theswitch will be instantly damagedbecause of excess current.

3. Confirm proper insulationof wiring.Be certain that there is no faulty wiringinsulation (contact with other circuits,ground fault, improper insulationbetween terminals, etc.). Damage mayoccur due to excess current flow into aswitch.

4. Do not run wiring nearpower lines or high voltagelines.Wire separately from power lines or highvoltage lines, avoiding parallel wiring orwiring in the same conduit with theselines. Control circuits containing autoswitches may malfunction due to noisefrom these other lines.

∗ Lead wire color changesLead wire colors of SMC switches havebeen changed in order to meet NECAStandard 0402 for production beginningSeptember, 1996 and thereafter. Pleaserefer to the tables provided.

Special care should be taken regardingwire polarity during the time that the oldcolors still coexist with the new colors.

Operating EnvironmentWiring

5. Do not allow short circuit ofloads.<Solid state switch>

Models D-F9(V), F9W(V) and allmodels of PNP output type switches donot have built-in short circuit protectioncircuits. If loads are short circuited, theswitches will be instantly damaged.Take special care to avoid reverse wiringwith the power supply line (brown) andthe output line (black) on 3 wire typeswitches.

6. Avoid incorrect wiring.<Solid state switch>

1) If connections are reversed on a 2 wiretype switch, the switch will not be dam-aged if protected by a protection circuit,but the switch will always stay in an ONstate. However, it is still necessary toavoid reversed connections, since theswitch could be damaged by a loadshort circuit in this condition.

2) If connections are reversed (power sup-ply line + and power supply line –) on a3 wire type switch, the switch will be pro-tected by a protection circuit. However, ifthe power supply line (+) is connected tothe blue wire and the power supply line(–) is connected to the black wire, theswitch will be damaged.

1. Never use in an atmos-phere of explosive gases.The structure of auto switches is notintended to prevent explosion. Neveruse in an atmosphere with an explosivegas since this may cause a seriousexplosion.

2. Do not use in an area wherea magnetic field is generat-ed.Auto switches will malfunction or mag-nets inside air grippers will become de-magnetized.

3. Do not use in an environ-ment where the auto switchwill be continually exposedto water.Although switches, except for a fewmodels, conform to IEC standard IP67construction (JIS C 0920: watertightconstruction), avoid using switches inapplications where continually exposedto water splash or spray. Poor insulationor swelling of the potting resin insideswitches may cause malfunction.

4. Do not use in an environ-ment with oil or chemicals.Consult SMC if auto switches will beused in an environment with coolant,cleaning solvent, various oils or chemi-cals. If auto switches are used underthese conditions for even a short time,they may be adversely affected byimproper insulation, malfunction due toswelling of the potting resin, or harden-ing of the lead wires.

5. Do not use in an environ-ment with temperaturecycles.Consult SMC if switches are used wherethere are temperature cycles other thannormal air temperature changes, as theymay be adversely affected internally.

Other

1. Consult SMC concerningwater resistance, elasticityof lead wires, and usage atwelding sites, etc.

Warning

6. Do not use in locationswhere surge is generated.<Solid state switch>

When there are units (solenoid type lifter,high frequency induction furnace, motor,etc.) which generate a large amount ofsurge in the area around air grippers withsolid state auto switches, this may causedeterioration or damage to the switches.Avoid sources of surge generation anddisorganized lines.

7. Avoid accumulation of irondebris or close contact withmagnetic substances.When a large amount of ferrous debrissuch as machining chips or spatter isaccumulated, or a magnetic substance(something attracted by a magnet) isbrought into close proximity with an autoswitch air gripper, it may cause the autoswitch to malfunction due to a loss ofthe magnetic force inside the air gripper.

Maintenance

1. Perform the following main-tenance periodically inorder to prevent possibledanger due to unexpectedauto switch malfunction.

1) Securely tighten switch mountingscrews.If screws become loose or the mountingposition is dislocated, retighten themafter readjusting the mounting position.

2) Confirm that there is no damage to leadwires.

To prevent faulty insulation, replaceswitches or repair lead wires, etc., ifdamage is discovered.

3) Confirm lighting of the green light on 2color indication type switches.

Confirm that the green LED is on whenstopped at the established position. Ifthe red LED is on, the mounting positionis not appropriate. Readjust the mount-ing position so that the green LED lightsup.
