SMARTGrip is an advanced sensorized electromagnetic gripper designed to bring precision and flexibility to industrial material handling. Equipped with sensor feedback, its integrated controller intelligently adjusts the gripping force to handle a wide range of sheet types effortlessly. Whether dealing with variable thickness, perforations, or dimensions, even with sheets thinner than 1 mm, SMARTGrip ensures accurate and reliable performance.

Built for harsh industrial environments, SMARTGrip excels in handling greasy and contaminated sheets, maintaining consistent performance where other solutions struggle. Additionally, it offers the capability to pick up exactly one or multiple sheets as needed, without any operator intervention. This level of automation not only boosts efficiency but also reduces the margin for error, enabling seamless operation in challenging conditions.

With SMARTGrip, you gain a solution that optimizes material handling, ensuring precision, adaptability, and durability for your production needs.
