Hercules: Maximum Power and Precision for Heavy Industrial Loads

The Hercules Pneumatic Manipulator is designed for the precise, safe, and efficient handling of large and heavy loads. Its rigid arm structure enables stable and secure gripping of offset and off-center loads. The pneumatic balancing system and precise motion control mechanisms allow operators to transport loads with minimal effort, ensuring maximum efficiency and ergonomics in the workplace.

The Hercules model can be equipped with vacuum, gripper, and magnetic holders to suit different industrial needs. These handling tools enhance precision during transportation, providing a safe and efficient solution for various load types.

With the ability to move parts at 90°, 180°, and 360° along multiple axes, it offers flexibility in complex handling operations. The rigid arm structure and powerful balancing mechanisms enable the precise movement of heavy loads. This movement capability is provided by pneumatically controlled actuators and motors. The operator can manually adjust the load balance within safety parameters, ensuring secure and efficient transportation.

General Features

• Capacity: Up to 1,200 kg load capacity
• Maximum Reach Distance: 4,500 mm
• Vertical Lifting Distance: 2,200 mm
• Operating Principle: Works with dry, filtered (40 μm), oil-free compressed air (min. 0.7/0.8 MPa)
