Piab Sensi Sure GRZ 10-10 Grippers Review: Specs, Price and Applications
Piab Sensi Sure grippers are an improved version of the GRZ 10-10 sprue and part plier family. A set screw adjusts the jaw closing position to fit specific parts and reduce marring.
The sensor jaw has been redesigned for higher sensitivity and a broader sensing range along the full length of the jaw. The body guards the jaw against sprue or part binding, and an integrated jaw screw allows jaw replacement.
Quick Verdict
A practical upgrade for sprue picking: more reliable sensing and adjustable closing reduce missed grips and marked parts.

Design and Operating Principle
Sprue grippers often have sensors only at the tip, so a sprue gripped further back may not register. Sensi Sure senses along the full jaw length.
Adjustable closing limits jaw travel to the part thickness, preventing marring of visible parts.
Guarding prevents sprue fragments from jamming the jaw.
Integration and Selection
Set the closing screw for each part, wire the sensor to the robot and confirm grip before leaving the mold.
Keep spare jaws for quick replacement.
