SMC Corporation MHF2-12D1R Parallel Pneumatic Gripper

SMC MHF2-12D1R is a compact, low-profile parallel pneumatic gripper in the MHF2 family. It features a 12 mm bore and a 24 mm stroke, delivering precise, parallel jaw movement for dependable gripping of small parts in automated lines. The D1R designation indicates a double-acting actuation, providing controlled extension and retraction of the two-finger gripper. Designed for end-of-arm tooling in compact configurations, it supports two-finger parallel gripping that keeps parts aligned during pick-and-place operations, reducing rotation and misalignment. Typical applications include electronics assembly, packaging, and lightweight handling of small components in manufacturing environments where space is at a premium. The gripper is compatible with SMC’s standard MHF2 mounting patterns and finger configurations, enabling straightforward integration with existing automation hardware and pneumatics systems.
