Double Acting Type - MA3
The Auto Hand Changing (AHC) system, coupled with a tool adaptor, can be quickly linked and interchanged with either a standard or high precision pneumatic gripper. It is very versatile and can be integrated into a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) making the AHC an effective 2-in-1 gripper component. The MA3 load bearing unit has a max. transportable mass of 5 kg, with a built-in failsafe mechanism for drop prevention when there is loss of air pressure. Paired with the tool adaptor, it can link with two types of grippers.![MA3, AHC Unit, Auto Hand Changing System](https://content2.smcetech.com/image/medium/3130.jpg)
