Read More »Mini-Electric Grippers aid in manipulation of small objects.
Intended for 5- and 6-axis R12 articulated robot arms, E Series Grippers utilize mini integrated motor/lead screw drives and are available with stand-alone MCUs to accommodate any make of robot. E1 Fulcrum (scissor action) has long fingers and 10 N closing force. When fully open, tips are 30 mm apart. E2 is similar but has short jaws that let user attach fingers. E3 Fulcrum gripper has jaws and...
