Palletizing Cast Iron Pipes with Magnetic Gripper on Gantry Robot

Magnetic gripper on gantry robot helps palletize cast iron pipes effectively in construction machinery. 

Nowadays, we can see magnetic grippers more and more often in ferrous material handling on automated production lines. And today let's see how magnetic grippers for robotic palletizing can easily solve the problem of cast iron pipes handling.

In construction machinery, cast iron pipes handling faces the following problems:

1. The curvy-shaped surface makes the pipes a small contact surface with the magnet, so clamping force cannot be guaranteed.

2. The customer asked for a lifting magnet that can lift a row of iron pipes at one time.

The magnetic gripper solution for robotic gantry system that HVR MAG provides:

A. We custom made the magnet surface into a curvy shape so as to maximize the contact surface between the pipes and the magnet. Then the magnetic force is ensured. And safety is ensured.

B. A row of pipes can be lifted since the magnetic force is guaranteed and the rectangular magnet modules have wavy shapes to perfectly fit into the pipes' contact surfaces.

The magnetic gripper on gantry robot was finally put into practical production with high performance. The customer was satisfied. Are you looking for magnetic grippers for your robotic gantry system, contact us at: export@hvrmagnet.com
