Machine Tending Kits from EMI

Whether you're new to automation or redeploying and existing robot/collaborative robot, our new machine tending kits are ideal for tending CNC mills and lathes.

By taking our years of experience with robotic handling in different fields, EMI can help you automate your machine tending process. Quickly implement collaborative robots to perform repetitive tasks, increasing production capacity while removing error. Our in-stock gripper kits can be found towards the bottom of the page.

EMI’s Machine Tending Kits are now available with one of the industry’s most iconic gripper, the PGN-plus-P and PZN-plus, 2&3-jaw grippers by SCHUNK®.

Compatible with EMI’s existing mounting interface and adjustable gripper fingers, the PGN & PZN series grippers are a fantastic compliment to EMI’s product offering.

Mounting Configuration Options:

There are three mounting configuration options available: D90, S180 and D180. The D90 configuration (left) contains two grippers that are mounting at 90° with respect to one another, that are great for loading and unloading a machine vise in a CNC mill. The D180 configuration (right) contains two grippers that are mounted 180° with respect to one another on a boom arm. The S180 configuration (center) is a single gripper version of the D180. Both of the D180 and S180 kits are ideal for tending CNC lathes.



Choose the Right Gripper for Your Application:

Each mounting configuration is offered with either 2-jaw parallel grippers or 3-jaw concentric style grippers.

These machine tending kits are delivered with stock gripper fingers that allow the kits to be easily applied to a wide variety of application. The 2-jaw gripper fingers can be used for both inner and outer gripping scenarios and features 12 mounting positions, along with multiple grip surface options (blank, HNBR pad & rubber pad). The 3-jaw gripper fingers offers 9 mounting positions and dual-sided fingers to expand the functional gripping range.
