Refer to the back cover for safety instructions. For air gripper and auto switch precautions, refer to the Handling Precautions for SMC Products and the Operation Manual on the SMC website: If a workpiece is hooked onto the attachment, make sure that excessive impact will not be created at the start and the end of the movement. Failure to observe this precaution may result in shifting or dropping the workpiece, which could be dangerous. 4

6 MHL2 Series Model Selection Step Check the gripping force. Step 2 Check the gripping point. Step Check the gripping force. Check the conditions. Select the model based on the workpiece length. Calculate the required gripping force. Select the model from effective gripping force graph. Example Workpiece form: Length x Width 2 mm x 2 mm plate Workpiece mass:.3 kg Gripping point distance R = 7 mm Operating pressure: Select the appropriate model for a 2 mm long workpiece. (Refer to the Table.) MHL2-6D2Z MHL2-2DZ, D2Z MHL2-25DZ, D2Z Guidelines for the selection of the gripper with respect to workpiece mass (Refer to the Effective Gripping Force on page 6.) lthough conditions differ according to the workpiece shape and the coefficient of friction between the attachments and the workpiece, select a model that can provide a gripping force of to 2 times the workpiece mass, or more. Example) For setting the gripping force to be at least 2 times the workpiece mass: Required gripping force =.3 kg x 2 x 9.8 m/s 2 6 N Further allowance should be provided when great acceleration or impact is expected during workpiece transfer. MHL2-2D 2 Z MPa.2 MPa When the MHL2-2DZ is selected. gripping force of 73 N is obtained from the intersection point of gripping point distance R = 7 and a pressure. The gripping force is 24 times greater than the workpiece mass, and therefore satisfies a gripping force setting value of 2 times or more. Table Model Bore size [mm] Closing width [mm] (L) Opening width [mm] (L2) Model Bore size [mm] Closing width [mm] (L) Opening width [mm] (L2) MHL2-DZ MHL2-2DZ MHL2-DZ 78 8 MHL2-2DZ MHL2-D2Z MHL2-2D2Z MHL2-6DZ MHL2-25DZ 5 MHL2-6DZ 6 7 MHL2-25DZ MHL2-6D2Z 3 2 MHL2-25D2Z 2 32 The opening/closing width represents the value when gripping the exterior of a workpiece. 5 Calculation of Required Gripping Force F µf mg µf Gripping force at least to 2 times the workpiece weight The to 2 times or more of the workpiece weight recommended by SMC is calculated with a margin of a = 4, which allows for impacts that occur during normal transportation, etc. When µ =.2 When µ =. mg F = x 4 2 x.2 = x mg mg F = x 4 2 x. = 2 x mg x Workpiece weight 2 x Workpiece weight F When gripping a workpiece as in the figure to the left, and with the following definitions, F : µ : Coefficient of friction between the attachments and the workpiece m : Workpiece mass [kg] g : Gravitational acceleration (= 9.8 m/s 2 ) mg : Workpiece weight [N] the conditions under which the workpiece will not drop are 2 x µf > mg Number of fingers and therefore, mg F > 2 x µ With a representing the margin, F is determined by the following formula: mg F = x a 2 x µ Even in cases where the coefficient of friction is greater than µ =.2, for reasons of safety, select a gripping force which is at least to 2 times greater than the workpiece weight, as recommended by SMC. If high acceleration or impact forces are encountered during motion, a further margin should be considered. L L2

7 Wide Type Parallel Style ir Gripper MHL2 Series Effective Gripping Force Indication of effective gripping force The gripping force shown in the tables represents the gripping force of one finger when all fingers and attachments are in contact with the work. F = One finger thrust. F F MHL2-DZ MHL2-D 2 Z MHL2-6DZ MHL2-6D 2Z MPa.2 MPa MPa.2 MPa MPa.2 MPa MPa.2 MPa MHL2-2DZ MPa.2 MPa MHL2-2D 2 Z MPa.2 MPa MHL2-25DZ MPa.2 MPa MHL2-25D Z MPa.2 MPa Step 2 Check the gripping point. The workpiece gripping point distance should be within the gripping force ranges given for each pressure in the effective gripping force graphs above. If operated with the workpiece gripping point beyond the indicated ranges, the load that will be applied to the fingers or the guide will become excessively unbalanced. s a result, the fingers could become loosened and adversely affect the service life of the unit.

(Reed) Because there is no current leakage, the load voltage will not increase when turned OFF. However, depending on the number of auto switches in the ON state, the indicator lights may sometimes grow dim or not light up, due to the dispersion and reduction of the current flowing to the auto switches. 4
