Air nippers, also known as pneumatic cutters, are widely used in industrial automation to trim sprues and improve production efficiency.
Designed for stable, high-precision operation, these cutters are available in pull-back and push-out configurations to suit different applications.

An air nipper is a pneumatic cutting tool used on EOAT and automation equipment to trim plastic gates, sprues and runners. Reliable selection depends on the material, cut size, blade geometry, mounting direction and available air pressure.
Identify the resin, reinforcement, gate or runner cross-section and temperature at the time of cutting.
Choose straight, angled or application-specific blades around the cut location, access direction and required finished edge.
Confirm the required cutting force at the operating air pressure and include variation in material and gate dimensions.
Check nipper orientation, bracket stiffness, hose routing, cut-part collection, cycle time and blade replacement access.
Use pneumatic blades when the EOAT task is to cut a plastic gate, sprue or runner at a controlled location.
Use a sprue gripper when the task is to hold, remove and transfer a sprue, runner or suitable molded feature without cutting it.
These details allow CRG to assess the nipper body, blade, bracket and integration requirements.
If the task is to grip and remove the runner rather than cut it, compare CRG sprue grippers. Review the broader robot gripper range for part handling.
An air nipper is a pneumatic cutter used in automated equipment and robot EOAT to trim plastic gates, sprues, runners and similar features.
Match the blade to the gate geometry, access direction, material and required cut finish. A drawing, photo and material sample help confirm the choice.
Capacity depends on material, gate cross-section, blade geometry, operating pressure and the condition of the blades. Confirm the application rather than selecting from outside dimensions alone.
Yes. CRG can evaluate the nipper orientation, bracket, EOAT connection and nearby sprue-handling components from the robot-cell layout.
Send the material, gate dimensions, cut direction, air pressure and EOAT layout.
