Schmalz String Gripper SSG

Applications

• Used in manual processes (SSG-M) and automated processes (SSG-A) where no marks may be left on the workpiece (HT1 special material that does not leave marks)


• The handling of strings (no damage is caused when they are removed or deposited) is just one of the uses in the solar and electronics industry


• Handling of uneven workpieces, such as photovoltaic strings with tab wires and photovoltaic cells with Busbars

Our highlights...	Your benefits...
• Suction pad with reduced internal diameter at the sealing surface	> No pull into the suction pad (no deformation or damage of the workpiece), and decrease of leakage during sealing, for example caused by tab wires on photovoltaic strings
• Special material HT1 of suction pads	> Suction pad does not leave any marks on the workpiece; even at high temperatures
• Low weight	> Secure, fast and precise handling
• Integrated vacuum generator	> No costly piping, no spring plungers or moving parts
• High suction capacity, even with partial coverage and leakage	> Secure gripping and holding, even with deformed, broken or perforated wafers
