Needle Gripper by FIPA GR04.750.

FIPA needle grippers are optimized for handling flexible or air permeable items, such as for example, textiles and felt and foam mats.

The adjustable stroke allows the compressed air-controlled needle grippers to be adapted to various material thicknesses.
Some models come with sensor slots for detection of piston position and thus, indirectly, the needle position.
FIPA offers compatible fittings for integration in gripper systems.
