  There are several potential reasons why your SCHUNK industrial equipment might not be moving. Here's what to check: * Ensure the mounting surface is sufficiently even, as base jaws may jam if it isn't. * Verify the air supply to ensure pressure isn't dropping below the minimum. * Confirm that the compressed air lines are correctly connected. * Check the proximity switch for defects or incorrect settings; readjust or replace it if necessary. * Close any unused air connections. * Open the flow control valve. * If none of these steps resolve the issue, a component part may be defective. In this case, replace the component or send it to SCHUNK for repair.

- Z
  Zachary StanleyAug 17, 2025
  A drop in gripping force in your SCHUNK industrial equipment can occur due to several reasons: * Compressed air might be escaping. Inspect the seals and replace them if necessary, which may require disassembling the product. * There might be too much grease in the mechanical movement space. Clean and lubricate the product to resolve this. * The pressure may be dropping below the required minimum. Check the air supply to ensure it meets the minimum requirements. * A component part could be defective. Replace the component or send the equipment to SCHUNK for repair.

  If your SCHUNK module is opening or closing abruptly, consider these potential causes: * Check the compressed air lines for any blockages, crushing, or damage. * Ensure the mounting surface is sufficiently level. * Install and adjust the flow control valve if it's missing or not set correctly. * Review the permissible weight and length of the jaws to ensure the load isn't too high.

Why SCHUNK Industrial Equipment product does not achieve the opening and closing times?
- A
  Amy PhillipsAug 28, 2025
  If your SCHUNK industrial equipment isn't achieving the specified opening and closing times, it could be due to: * Suboptimal installation of compressed air lines. Open the flow control couplings on the product to the maximum extent that the movement of the jaws occurs without bouncing and hitting. * Excessive loading. Check the permissible weight and length of the gripper fingers.

  If the magnetic switch isn't working on your SCHUNK industrial equipment, check the following: * Ensure you're using stainless steel screws instead of steel screws to mount the gripper. * Verify that mounting plates, brackets, etc., are made from non-magnetic materials. If possible, use aluminum or plastic.
