CLEANROOM CERTIFICATIONS
PRODUCTS WITH CLASSIFICATION
TÜV-CERTIFIED AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGY
Cleanrooms are divided into special cleanroom classes depending on the particle density and emissions. They are subject to strict, standardized requirements and are classified according to the degree of air purity. The maximum permissible particle concentration and the particle size play an important role here. Cleanrooms are divided into ISO classes 1 through 9, where purity class 1 represents the purest because it has the lowest possible particle concentration. After successful certification processes, more than 500 gripper and clamping elements from the Zimmer Group have been certified for cleanroom classes 2 to 6 in accordance with the international standard DIN EN ISO 14644-1 due to their low particle emissions.

SERIES AEPN
ELECTRO-PNEUMATIC UNIT
MOBILE AN INDEPENDENT
Our clamping and braking elements in particular provide high clamping forces with a low volume consumption and clamp just like our grippers or zero-point clamping systems as an NC variant when there is a pressure drop. The system bleeds as fast as lightning when the power fails thanks to our proven, integrated quick exhaust valve.
ELECTRO-PNEUMATIC POWERHOUSE
The electro-pneumatic unit can be combined with a variety of Zimmer Group products and enables the use of pneumatic products in areas where compressed air was previously not available. This opens up new possibilities in terms of design and safety and can offer a significant cost advantage.
INTEGRATED SENSING AND EXTENDABLE
The unit is specially optimized to our components with low air consumption and enables optimized and energy-saving use thanks to a dynamic pressure setting. A pneumatic pressure of between 4 and 6 bar can be selected, which is then reliably regulated and maintained thanks to integrated sensing. If you upgrade to pressure storage, this can help to reduce the process time even further.
LIGHT & COMPACT
At the same time, this light and compact unit can be positioned close to consumers, thus enabling very fast opening and closing times. Thanks to the simple control and 24V technology, our product is predestined for mobile units with a battery supply, such as driverless transport systems. In addition, various process sequences can also be implemented thanks to the controllable valves.
DESIGN INCLUDED
When integrating the electro-pneumatic unit with our components, we will be happy to offer you a design of the switching times – and for braking elements, also the calculation of the braking distance taking into account your application data.
ALL-IN-ONE POSITION SENSOR
MFS02-S-KHC-IL
PRECISE and versatile
Discover our MFS02-S-KHC-IL position sensor. With IO-Link and an analog output, it extends our magnetic field sensor portfolio with continuous position measurement. The sensor features an impressive measuring range of up to 50 mm. With its space-saving installation in the C-groove, it can be integrated perfectly into any application. The exceptional resolution of 0.01 mm also enables the detection of defective parts (NIO), thus actively increasing your quality. Thanks to the dynamic teach-in function, which detects the standstill of the piston, three positions can be taught automatically.
PNEUMATIC ROTARY CLAMPING ELEMENT
DKPS1000 SERIES
PNEUMATIC OR HYDRAULIC – THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
Increased performance requirements in tooling machines and an increased level of safety require powerful and innovative solutions. Following the successful market launch of our DKPS1000 series with pneumatic control and digital scanning, we are rounding off the extensive product range with additional installation sizes, thus closing the gap between all available sizes.
PRODUCT ADVANTAGES
- Torque absorption from shafts
- Safety clamping of the torque motor
- C-axis clamping
- Clamping and securing of swivel bridges
- Clamping of the spindle swiveling axis
SIMPLE STATUS SENSING
An efficient and fast process sequence is a requirement for all of our components and the DKPS1000 is no exception to this. The DKPS1000 can make use of its full potential thanks to the optional digital sensing. Additional safeties for switching times are no longer required.
HIGH HOLDING FORCES – WITHOUT ADDITIONAL AIR AND WITHOUT COMPROMISING CYCLE STABILIITY
The DKPS1000 series not only surpasses the non-pressurized holding force of rotary clamps available on the market; it also features an increased service life compared to the benchmark. Both of these properties equally ensure enhanced safety when it comes to safeguarding rotation and swivel axes. This also increases system availability.
IO-LINK WIRELESS MODULES
ERROR-FREE communication
INTERFERENCE-FREE, SCALABLE, SECURE
Especially in robotics, the last robot axis often lacks an appropriate electrical interface for intelligent gripper components.
And in circulating systems, which are being used more and more frequently, it is missing completely. But why resort to external cable routing along the robot arm or circulation system and live with the associated disadvantages such as restricted freedom of movement, cable breakages and sources of interference when there is a straightforward solution?
The standardized IO-Link Wireless communication modules from the Zimmer Group enable trouble-free and secure communication of IO-Link signals, without any cabling, and guarantee wireless transmission of all required signals and information.
