A pin clamp assembly having a housing, locating pin, at least one finger, a drive rod and an actuator is provided. At least a portion of the locating pin may be extendable exterior of the housing. The finger is located adjacent the locating pin and movable relative thereto. The drive rod is movable and is engagable with the finger to move the finger between clamped and unclamped positions. The actuator drives the locating pin and the drive rod. Movement of the locating pin and drive rod is linear only and no rotational movement of the locating pin and drive rod is employed to move the finger between clamped and unclamped positions.
A long travel gripper is provided which has first and second end caps, first, second and third guide rails, first and second jaws, and first and second piston assemblies. The first, second and third guide rails extend between the first and second end caps. The first and second jaws, each receive, and move rectilinearly along, the first, second and third guide rails. The first and second piston assemblies each include first and second piston rods and pistons, respectively.
