3FG15 3-Finger Gripper

Modern automation depends on flexibility, precision, and reliability. Therefore, end of arm tooling plays a critical role in achieving efficient robotic performance. The OnRobot 3FG15 3-Finger Gripper is designed to deliver exactly that. It provides strong, stable gripping performance across a wide range of applications, especially in machine tending and part handling.

Because of its adaptable design and high payload capacity, it integrates easily with Universal Robots cobots, making it a powerful solution for manufacturers looking to improve productivity and consistency.

Flexible Gripping for Multiple Applications

The 3FG15 is designed for gripping cylindrical objects with ease. Therefore, it is particularly effective in CNC lathe tending and similar machine operations. It can handle part sizes from 20 mm up to 150 mm, which makes it highly versatile across different production environments.

In addition, the gripper automatically centres workpieces during operation. As a result, positioning becomes more accurate and repeatable, even in high speed cycles.

Because of this automatic centring feature, setup time is reduced and programming effort is kept to a minimum.

Strong Performance with High Payload Capacity

The 3FG15 offers a payload capacity of up to 15 kg. Therefore, it can handle heavier components that are typically managed by larger and less flexible gripping systems.

In addition, its gripping force ranges from 10 N to 240 N. This allows it to securely hold both delicate and heavy parts depending on application needs.

Because of this strength and control, it provides reliable performance across a wide range of industrial tasks.

Ideal for Machine Tending and Beyond

The 3FG15 is widely used in CNC lathe machine tending. However, its flexibility allows it to support other applications as well. For example, it can be used in:

• Machine tending operations
• Insertion tasks
• Part handling and transfer
• Light palletising applications
• Assembly support processes

It is not limited to a single function. Instead, it supports multiple workflows within the same production environment.

Because of this versatility, manufacturers can reduce the need for multiple specialised grippers.

Seamless Integration with Universal Robots

The OnRobot 3FG15 is designed for easy integration with Universal Robots cobots. Therefore, it can be deployed quickly without complex engineering work.

In addition, pre-integrated software allows for fast installation and simple programming. Even operators with limited technical experience can set up the gripper with minimal training.

Because of this simplicity, downtime is reduced and productivity is increased.

High Precision and Repeatability

Accurate positioning is essential in modern manufacturing. Therefore, the 3FG15 is designed to deliver consistent centric gripping every time.

Its three-finger design provides stable contact points that hold parts securely. In addition, this structure ensures that components are aligned correctly during handling.

As a result, part quality is improved and production errors are reduced.

Because of this repeatability, manufacturers can achieve higher output consistency across long production runs.

Large Stroke for Maximum Flexibility

The 3FG15 features a large stroke of up to 150 mm. Therefore, it can handle a wide range of part sizes without requiring tool changes.

This extended movement allows the gripper to adapt to different geometries and workflows.

Because of this flexibility, production lines become more efficient and less dependent on manual adjustments.

Customisable Fingertips for Specialised Tasks

The fingertips of the 3FG15 can be customised to suit specific applications. Therefore, manufacturers can tailor the gripper to match unique part shapes and materials.

In addition, this customisation improves grip quality and reduces the risk of part damage.

Because of this adaptability, the gripper can be optimised for both standard and specialised production tasks.

Easy Deployment and Fast Setup

One of the key advantages of the 3FG15 is its ease of deployment. Therefore, it can be integrated into existing automation systems quickly and efficiently.

In addition, its intuitive setup process reduces the need for advanced technical knowledge. Operators can configure the system and begin production in a short time.

Because of this simplicity, businesses can achieve faster return on investment.

Improve Efficiency and Reduce Downtime

Automation with the 3FG15 helps reduce manual handling and improve production flow. Therefore, machines can operate for longer periods with minimal interruption.

In addition, consistent gripping reduces errors that can lead to downtime or rework.

As a result, overall production efficiency is improved.

Because of this reliability, manufacturers can maintain stable output levels throughout production cycles.

A Smarter Approach to End of Arm Tooling

The 3FG15 combines strength, flexibility, and precision in a single solution. Therefore, it replaces multiple traditional grippers with one adaptable system.

In addition, its compatibility with Universal Robots ensures smooth integration into modern automation environments.

Because of this design, it supports scalable and future ready production strategies.

The OnRobot 3FG15 3-Finger Gripper is a powerful and flexible end of arm tooling solution for modern automation. It delivers high precision, strong gripping force, and easy integration with cobot systems.

If your business is looking to improve machine tending, part handling, or flexible automation processes, the 3FG15 offers a reliable and efficient solution that enhances productivity and reduces complexity.
