Scott Equipment Company supports SCHUNK gripping systems, tool changers and modular automation components for manufacturers, OEMs and integrators throughout North and South Carolina.
SCHUNK Grippers, Tool Changers & Automation Technology
SCHUNK develops pneumatic and electric grippers, robotic tool changers, compensation units, force/torque sensors, linear axes and other automation components for reliable workpiece handling. Its Robot PLUS portfolio brings key end-of-arm technologies together for flexible robot applications.
Gripping and Automation Components for Flexible Workpiece Handling
SCHUNK offers a broad gripping portfolio that includes pneumatic, electric, magnetic, adhesive and application-specific technologies. Its automation range extends from tool changing and compliance to rotary motion, linear axes, sensors and application kits. SCHUNK’s broader global portfolio also includes workpiece clamping, tool clamping and depaneling technology.
Broad Gripping Technology
Parallel, centric, angular, radial, magnetic, adhesive and special grippers support applications ranging from delicate small-part handling to heavy workpieces and harsh environments.
Pneumatic and Mechatronic Options
Machine builders can choose established pneumatic products or programmable electric grippers with adjustable stroke, force, diagnostics and industrial-network interfaces.
Complete End-of-Arm Building Blocks
Tool changers, compensation units, force/torque sensors, feed-through modules and related accessories help build adaptable end-of-arm tooling systems.
Explore SCHUNK Gripping and Automation Products
Use these product areas as a starting point for robotic handling, machine tending, assembly, part transfer, quality inspection, flexible manufacturing and end-of-arm tooling projects.
Pneumatic & Electric Gripping Systems
Parallel, centric, angular and radial grippers are available for small parts, universal handling, long-stroke applications, sealed environments, heavy loads and specialized workpieces.
Explore gripping systems →EGU & EGK Mechatronic Grippers
EGU universal grippers and EGK small-component grippers provide freely programmable jaw stroke and gripping force, integrated force maintenance and interfaces including PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, IO-Link and Modbus RTU.
Explore EGU and EGK →Robot PLUS End-of-Arm Solutions
Robot PLUS brings SCHUNK tool changers, compensation units and force/torque sensors together as a coordinated portfolio for flexible robot automation.
Explore Robot PLUS →Automatic & Manual Tool Changers
CPS, CPB, CMS and established SWS systems support fast end-effector changes, with compatible media-transfer modules for pneumatic, vacuum, electrical, fluid and communication connections.
Explore tool changers →Compliance, Collision Protection & Force Sensing
AGM compensation units help accommodate alignment error and process tolerances, while anti-collision components and six-axis force/torque sensors support robot protection, process monitoring, assembly and finishing.
Explore compliance and sensing →Axes, Rotary Motion & Application Kits
Linear axes, rotary actuators, multi-axis handling components and application kits support automated part movement, machine loading, assembly and other repeatable motion tasks.
Explore automation technology →Help Select and Apply SCHUNK Gripping and EOAT Components
Our Sales and Technical Teams can help review the workpiece, gripping method, jaw stroke, force, finger geometry, robot payload, cycle time, environment, sensing, media transfer and interface requirements. We can also coordinate SCHUNK products with robot platforms, vacuum components, cable management, connectivity and machine-safety products.
Gripper Sizing & Selection
Evaluate part weight, acceleration, friction, gripping direction, finger length, jaw stroke, gripping force, moment loads and environmental requirements.
Tool-Changer & Media Planning
Review robot payload, end-effector weight, locking approach, change frequency and pneumatic, vacuum, electrical, fluid or data feed-through needs.
EOAT Component Coordination
Combine grippers, tool changers, compliance, force sensing, vacuum, cable management, mounting plates and related accessories into a coordinated concept.
Installation-Ready Kits
Organize SCHUNK components, adapter plates, fittings, sensors, cables and mounting hardware into repeatable bills of material or WBIYII installation kits.
Selection note: Final component selection should be verified against the actual payload, acceleration, grip orientation, friction, finger geometry, moment loads, robot capacity, media requirements, environment and applicable machine-safety requirements. Scott Equipment supplies and supports automation components but is not the turnkey robot integrator responsible for validating the complete robotic system.
