The who's who of the industry will meet at AMB from September 13 to 17, 2022 at Messe Stuttgart. SCHUNK is also part of the community that is burning with passion and commitment for metalworking. After a long hiatus, this community is finally coming together again in person. The technology leader will be showcasing automation and digitalization options for machining as well as new developments in the field of sustainable, resource-efficient clamping devices.

SCHUNK was all about starting stimulating talks. The application expert demonstrated the wide range of its automation know-how using innovative approaches to handling and processing. The leading trade show for intelligent automation and robotics presented itself as a guiding light for the industry.

The pneumatic gripper is the first in the world to have certified safe gripping force maintenance. Those, who are looking for a powerful, yet versatile gripper will be well taken care of by the new PGL-plus-P.

The German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action awarded the innovative ADHESO gripping technology from SCHUNK with the IKU 2022. The bio-inspired, energy-saving method of handling facilitates sustainable automation processes in many areas. SCHUNK developed the technology together with the startup company INNOCISE.

Automation without risk – this is what beginners and experts in automation both want. At automatica, the leading trade show for intelligent automation and robotics, application expert SCHUNK will be showing new ways as well as clever digital services that enable customers to master their tasks and design production processes flexibly and efficiently.

Minimal interfering contour, short cycle times, and high energy efficiency – SCHUNK magnetic grippers offer a vast array of advantages. They handle ferromagnetic parts reliably over the long term and leave no traces. Two new variants now provide even more design freedom for robotic applications.

The manufacturing industry holds a key position in the life science sector. After all, when manufacturing sensitive products that come into direct contact with people, reliable system components are an absolute must. Right in the thick of it: High-tech components from SCHUNK. They meet the requirements for manufacturing quality and reliability. For more than 30 years, the family-owned company has been supplying customers from the medical technology and laboratory automation sectors with standard products and customized solutions.

Automation without risk – That's exactly what's demanded by both automation novices and professionals who want to make their processes even faster, more reliable, and safer. SCHUNK offers a practical approach to solving this problem. Since the beginning of the year, planned applications can be validated at the SCHUNK robotics application center CoLab in Brackenheim-Hausen under realistic conditions. A successful model that SCHUNK is now also exporting to China and the USA.

With the new optimized 2-finger parallel gripper JGP-P, SCHUNK is further expanding its series of universal grippers alongside the SCHUNK flagship PGN-plus-P. The successor of the JGP scores with a higher gripping force, flexibility in application, and a variety of monitoring options. Therefore, the gripping system specialist continues to raise the bar for the category of an optimized price-performance ratio for pneumatic grippers.

Always one step ahead: SCHUNK was the first company to launch clamping force blocks on the market. The TANDEM3 modular system continues this success story: The new series replaces the existing TANDEM-plus modular system and expands the portfolio with numerous variants. SCHUNK offers more solutions and services for workpiece clamping in its standard range than any other company and paves the way for their use in automated machine loading.
