The SMC 11-MDHR2-10E-M9BL is a clean room specification 2-finger rotary actuated air gripper from the MHR2 series. Part number decoded: MDHR2 = MHR2 series double acting, 10 = size 10 (10mm jaw opening), E = E-type finger style (typically extended or specific finger geometry), M9BL = pre-mounted auto-switch (M9B type with L lead wire specification). The MHR2 combines gripping and rotating functions in a single compact unit.
What makes the MHR2 a rotary gripper? Standard parallel grippers (MHZ2, MHL2) open and close fingers linearly. The MHR2 uses a cam mechanism that rotates two fingers around pivot points, creating an angular gripping motion. This rotary action provides several advantages: the fingers approach the workpiece from the sides with a sweeping motion that self-centers on cylindrical or spherical parts, the gripping force increases as the fingers close (mechanical advantage from the cam geometry), and the compact rotary envelope allows gripping in spaces where parallel fingers cannot reach.
The MDHR2-10E-M9BL comes with a factory-installed M9B auto-switch for grip confirmation. The E-type finger style provides a specific jaw geometry optimized for particular workpiece shapes. For the R-type finger style, the MDHR2-10R provides an alternative jaw configuration. For larger grip sizes, the MHR2 offers 15mm, 20mm, and 30mm jaw openings. For parallel gripping instead of rotary, the MHZ2-10 provides linear finger motion. Clean series (11-) fluorine grease. RoHS compliant.
