Why the HPSX

  • Food-safe by design

    Suitable for direct food contact per Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004, with food-contact materials (FDA) and IP69K certification.

  • Gentle & adaptive

    Soft silicone fingers conform to each object's shape; total gripping force from just 5 to 23 N.

  • Cobot-ready

    ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 flange with defined positioning; fits robots from Universal Robots, Fanuc, Hanwha, Aubo, and Doosan.

  • Clean design, less downtime

    Metal-detectable silicone fingers, easy cleaning, and simple installation reduce maintenance and downtime.

  • Quick self-assembly

    Supplied as three individual kits — adapter, mounting, and gripper finger cap — for fast assembly and easy spare-part replacement.

Festo soft gripper HPSX — detail

Simple pneumatic operation

The HPSX is a double-acting pneumatic gripper with a G1/4 connection and a maximum operating frequency of 5 Hz.

  1. Position: move the exhausted gripper over the object.
  2. Open: exhaust or apply overpressure to open the fingers and align with the object.
  3. Grip: apply low pressure to close the fingers — they adapt flexibly to the object's shape; regulate the vacuum for a gentle yet reliable hold.
  4. Release: exhaust or apply overpressure to open the fingers and move away.
