Bag Grippers – Adjustable!

The >SAS< ABG-50 Adjustable Bag Gripper is ideal for palletizing plastic, woven cloth or paper bags containing grains, chemicals, dog food, minerals, etc. A hand wheel driven lead screw quickly changes the ABG-50 for different bag widths while the optional servo drive adjusts the width on the fly to accommodate mixed loads.

Vacuum Technology

>SAS< provides Vacuum Plate End-of-Arm Tools to palletize single containers and even complete pallet layers. These EOATs are powered by vacuum turbines or venturi generators and provide superior gripping capabilities by using high vacuum flow. Valved vacuum ports automatically close when there are gaps between the products or the product is not present. The vacuum plates can also be zoned for multiple pick and place.

Clamping EOATs

Side clamp EOATs work particularly well for slip-top cartons as well as heavy weight applications where a topside pick is not possible; such as 40 lb. blocks of cheese in glued-up corrugated cartons. The clamping cylinders are programmable for the amount of force applied to the carton. This also allows for multiple sizes of cartons to be palletized with the same EOAT. An optional slip sheet system is also available.

Fork-style EOATs

Retracting Fork-style EOATs are particularly suited for open-top containers and over-sized bags that must be picked from the bottom. The stroking forks are designed to pick product from a roller conveyor. The forks retract through a stationary stripper plate and the product is placed on the pallet. A slip sheet option is available and the forks can also be used to pick and place a shipping pallet.
