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 ...

The NSR-PG-10-20 Precision Parallel Gripper from New Scale Robotics is an electric parallel gripper targeting precision assembly and inspection with collaborative robots (cobots). It is the smallest, ...

ODENSE, Denmark--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OnRobot has launched the 2FG7, a complete, low cost, easy to use, out-of-the-box, cleanroom-ready parallel gripper. Designed to enable companies of all sizes to set ...

With many businesses investing in automation to improve the productivity of their workplaces and the inevitable move towards readiness for Industry 4.0, the requirement for robotic grippers has grown ...

Designing robots that can handle fragile items is a big challenge for engineers. For warehouses, robots have been developed that use soft rubber fingers to grab items like fruit, but what about ...

Most robotic grippers work by applying pressure to an object from either side – it's an approach which could damage delicate items. A new gripper gets around that problem, however, thanks to an ...

This makes it appropriate for precision assembly tasks, while its sealed design ensures reliability in tough manufacturing conditions. Grip force is 60-130 N (14-27 lbs), form-fit grip payload is 5 kg ...

One of the most challenging things for humans to manipulate are items like rope, wire, or cables. These thin, flexible objects are even more difficult for robots to manage with most robotic grippers ...

Engineering researchers have demonstrated a new type of flexible, robotic grippers that are able to lift delicate egg yolks without breaking them, and that are precise enough to lift a human hair. The ...
