That's because the tape is both robust and flexible; can be stored in a ... They can also retract to bring objects closer to the robot arm the gripper is mounted on. The researchers had already ...

cobot-compatible gripper made the most sense as our next robotic automation product.” The gripper’s double-acting piston allows for flexible clamping and un-clamping force. Customers can choose from ...

They can also retract to bring objects closer to the robot arm, to which the ... As the tape is flexible, it can overcome any barriers that the gripper may encounter while picking up an object.

Onal said that one goal of the research is to develop a flexible and extendable robotic arm with off-the-shelf grippers that can pick up and carry a cup of water without spilling a drop.

Berk Calli, Worcester Polytechnic Institute One of the research objectives, according to Onal, is to develop a flexible, extendable robotic arm equipped with commercially available grippers ...

End of arm tooling (EoAT) refers to the devices attached to the end of a robotic arm that allow it to interact with objects and perform specific tasks. These tools range from simple grippers to ...

We usually think of robots as being made out of hard, rigid materials, but soft robotics seeks to build robotic devices out of more flexible materials ... structure in the arm, causing it to ...

A robotic gripper made from flexible ribbons can pick up objects as delicate as a dandelion to something 16,000 times heavier than itself. Most robotic grippers are specialised to perform a narrow ...
