4.3.2.3 Detection Switches
Each gripper assembly arm includes a detection switch for each lane (Figure 4-16 shows standard switch
options). These switches determine if carriers are present within the gripper assemblies. They must sense
the carrier’s edge on both sides of the workpiece at all times while gripped. Any loss of signal from one
of the switches will prompt a MH process carrier detection alarm, see 9.5 Material Handling Alarms.

4.3.2.4 Gripper Fingers
The gripper fingers engage and secure the workpiece for transport. Since these fingers are susceptible to
wear, follow the factory recommendation for inspection and replacement, see 8.4.1 Removing the Gripper
Assemblies. The gripper fingers are available in various sizes, designed to fit multiple process carriers
(Figure 4-17 through Figure 4-19).
