How to measure packaging gripper jaws

Use the machine drawing or a safely isolated assembly. Record the open and closed gaps between the same gripping faces. On a symmetric two-jaw gripper, the change in gap is the combined travel of both jaws. If the manufacturer gives stroke per jaw, label it separately.

Where to measure

Reference drawings. Verify dimensions on your part or the manufacturer’s drawing.

What to include in a jaw replacement quote

Measure jaw length, width, and thickness. Locate holes from the mounting face or end, and include hole sizes, thread details, and any dowels or locating steps. Add the pad dimensions and material if known, and identify the product or package being handled.
