Choosing the right gripper decides how smoothly your pick-and-place line runs. VS Enterprises supplies Mercury pneumatic parallel grippers from Noida to automation and machine-building teams across India — one of our most frequently ordered components, for good reason.
A parallel gripper has two jaws that move toward or away from each other in a straight, parallel line when air is applied. Custom fingers bolt onto the jaws to hold the part. It's the most widely used gripper type because the parallel motion keeps the part centred and stable across a wide range of shapes and sizes.
Exact figures vary by model — share your application and we'll confirm the right specification.
Loading and unloading automation cells, assembly-line transfer, packaging and sorting, and robotic end-of-arm tooling.
Part weight and dimensions, jaw stroke required, and whether the part must stay gripped if air supply fails.
Figures come from the Mercury catalogue and are confirmed for your size at quotation.

A few practical details to help you frame your next engineering project.
Ans: A twin rod cylinder is common — its dual-rod design stops rotation, keeping the gripper from twisting off-axis.
Fingers are custom-built to match your part. We supply the gripper body; share your part details and we'll advise on fingers.
