Page 4: Introduction & Features
INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Kurt RV36 Automation Gripper System. The RV36 is an innovative gripper design, engineered specifically for the high automation demands of today's manufacturing environment. This gripper system allows the gripper fingers to be switched out quickly and in an automated capacity. This functionality allows the same gripper body to perform many different tasks within a cell. -
Page 5: Installation & Mounting Guide
INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING The first step in preparing your new RV36 Gripper System for use, will be mounting the gripper on either a robot or some other automation platform. Use the following drawings as reference for both mounting and the fabrication of adapter plates and other mounting hardware. -

AIR FITTINGS After mounting the RV36, air lines will need to be run to the different fittings on the gripper. The following drawing shows the functions of the different fittings that come installed on the RV36. The ports that control the open and closing of the gripper are 1/4" push to connect air fittings. -
