The system is available with two different gripper types: A group of two to six fingers picks up workpieces and lifts them out of the transport container. As soon as one layer has been completely ...

A rigid end-of-arm tool with a mechanical interface and robot adapter, and a DeviceNet interface for remote configuration, control and data collection. The Layer Gripper uses a combination of vacuum ...

(Nanowerk News) To develop a more human-like robotic gripper, it is necessary to provide sensing capabilities to the fingers. However, conventional sensors compromise the mechanical properties of soft ...

Grippers are available to suit just about any application, such as this parallel design used to handle DVDs. Identifying the best gripper for the application can be a daunting task given the thousands ...

Making more human-like robotic grippers are made possible by adding sensory capabilities to the "fingers," providing feedback to the gripper and allowing it to adjust appropriately. However, ...

Although robotics has reshaped and even redefined many industrial sectors, there still exists a gap between machines and humans in fields such as health and elderly care. For robots to safely ...
