1Schunk gripperMaintain core principles

The maintenance of Schunk grippers should revolve around "wear resistance, precision assurance, and stable operation" to extend their service life and maintain gripping stability.

2、 Key steps for daily maintenance

Cleaning: After each use, wipe the surface of the gripper and the clamping contact surface with a dry cloth to remove dust, oil stains, and other impurities.

Lubrication: Check the joints and transmission parts weekly, add suitable lubricants according to the instructions, and avoid dry operation.

Tightening: Regularly inspect bolts, wiring terminals, and other connecting components, tighten them promptly if found loose, to prevent detachment during operation.

Detection: Before starting up, confirm that the gripper opening and closing actions are smooth, without any jamming or abnormal noise, and that the sensor signal feedback is normal.

3、 Quick resolution of common issues

Decreased gripping force: Check if the air/oil pressure meets the standard, clean the clamping surface or replace worn clamping pads.

Action delay: Check for insufficient lubrication or foreign object jamming, clean up and retest the operating status.

Signal abnormality: Check if the sensor wiring is loose, clean the sensor detection surface, and calibrate if necessary.

4、 Maintenance precautions

During maintenance, it is necessary to cut off the power supply and power source to avoid safety accidents caused by misoperation.

Do not use corrosive cleaning agents to avoid damaging the surface coating and sealing components of the gripper.

Develop regular maintenance plans based on the service life of the equipment, and replace core components promptly upon expiration.
