Vessel GT-NY05R Pneumatic Sliding Air Nipper Tool

The Vessel GT-NY05R Sliding Air Nipper is a compact, pneumatic cutting tool designed for precise gate trimming in molded plastics, ideal for integration in robotic work cells, injection molding equipment, and automated assembly lines. This horizontal-type push-style nipper operates at 0.4–0.5 MPa (58–72.5 PSI) and draws about 48 cm³ per stroke to deliver repeatable cuts within a 0–3 mm slide range. It handles soft plastic gates up to 3.0 mm O.D., hard plastic gates up to 2.0 mm O.D., and can cut copper wire up to 1.6 mm O.D. or steel wire up to 1.0 mm O.D., making it versatile for trimming and material processing in industrial automation. The tool measures 75.9 mm in length and weighs 155 g, with a hose inner diameter of 2.5 mm; blade type is reverse-type and sold separately. Designed for end-of-arm tooling or fixture-mounted assembly, it serves as a replacement air nipper for Vessel pneumatic cutting systems in production maintenance or retrofit projects. Manufactured by Vessel Co., Inc. in Japan, the GT-NY05R is commonly used for accurate gate removal and automated trimming tasks that require precise positioning and repeatable operation. Common replacements include the Vessel GT-NY10R Sliding Air Nipper and the GT-NF05 Air Nipper.
