Light Duty Articulating Pneumatic Arm

Knight’s AAA4000 Light Duty Articulating Pneumatic Arm is a parallelogram arm used to lift, rotate, balance, and move product from conveyors, dunnage, assembly lines and more. It uses a single cylinder in the rear of the arm to achieve greater lifting capacity, and therefore reduces fatigue by absorbing torque reaction and helping the operator lift and manipulate the product effortlessly.

The Light Duty Articulating Pneumatic Arm travels inside Knight’s RAD4110, RAD6110, or RAD7510 Aluminum Series Rail Systems on the “X”, “Y”, and “Z” axis and features a variety of control configurations. Linear Mounted Arms run in Knight’s LRD9500 Series Rail.
