Robotiq claw grabbing robot classification

Modern enterprises have a large scale and produce various products on the production line. In order to improve productivity and reduce time costs, Robotiq gripper robots with strong work capabilities are needed at the end of the production line to adapt to the rapid development of the economy and society. In order to improve the efficiency of robots, not only in terms of intelligence, but also in practical aspects, an effective method in this regard is to make robots have electric claws with multiple functions. When a robot is doing a certain job, it is necessary to install some devices at the end of the robot's wrist. This device is used to directly complete tasks. When directly inserted into the robot arm, the operation can be successfully completed. This type of device is called a machine claw. It is often used in the automation industry.

In addition to the two finger clip, there are also three finger clips. Generally, through electrical control, the angle and intensity can be adjusted to achieve grasping in complex scenes. Like this three fingered claw, it has 7 degrees of freedom and very high flexibility. Compared with traditional rigid palms, the application of multi degree of freedom palms in Robotiq greatly improves the dexterity and operational ability of multi finger dexterous hands. In addition to these traditional rigid claws, there are also pneumatic flexible claws. Traditional fixation devices are often limited by object shape, material, and gripping requirements, and cannot provide successful gripping solutions. Flexible jaws are made of flexible materials, with strong versatility and no need for frequent jaw replacement. The clamping force of Robotiq can be adjusted as needed, so it will not break or scratch the surface of fragile products when grabbing them. Flexible grip can adaptively cover target objects without the need to know their shape and size accurately in advance, which can to some extent solve the problem of abnormal and perishable goods. Large scale automated production can be well applied in food, medicine, fresh fruits and vegetables, 3C electronic sorting and other scenarios, and there may be great development in the future.

Due to the different purposes of Robotiq robots, the structural and performance requirements for end effectors are also different. Robotiq claw grabbing robots can be divided into tool and grasping categories according to their functions. In tool end effectors, the motion and positioning of the tool itself are achieved through the movement of the robot arm and wrist. For example, when welding a workpiece, the position of the welding gun is achieved through the movement of the robot arm, and the posture of the welding gun is achieved through the movement of the robot wrist. The end effectors of utility classes vary depending on the job. For example, spray guns used for spraying, welding frames used for spot welding, electric drills used for drilling, electric grinding tools used for grinding, laser guns or high-pressure jet guns used for cutting are all tool claws. They play important roles in different industries and provide strong motivation for enterprises.
