For a long time, pneumatic grippers have been a key component in industrial automation. With the increase of the gripper market, the shortcomings of pneumatic grippers are gradually becoming apparent. Firstly, although pneumatic grippers can achieve single point grasping, they produce loud noise during operation. Secondly, the unstable output of air pressure from the gripper leads to unstable clamping force, which can easily cause the object to fall off. These drawbacks limit the use of pneumatic grippers in high demand environments, giving rise to electric grippers.

Compared to pneumatic grippers, electric grippers can be digitally controlled, allowing for precise control of speed, position, and clamping force. It has the advantages of multi-point precise control and output force, as well as high flexibility, which is more suitable for the current production line's demand for flexibility. After several years of development, the application boundaries of electric grippers have gradually expanded, from robots to industrial automation, and the number of new manufacturers has rapidly increased. Despite the high flexibility and precision of electric grippers compared to pneumatic grippers, pneumatic grippers still dominate the current gripper market due to various factors such as price, technology, and customer trust.

Most of China's gripper products follow the development trend of foreign countries in terms of form, and the gripper products used for collaborative robots mostly follow the products of foreign companies. Only some fields with low cost sensitivity will consider domestic gripper products, and high-end market applications are almost monopolized by foreign products. In fact, currently both domestically and internationally, grippers can only achieve relatively simple functions and stable performance, with a high degree of homogenization, and both technology and applications are in the early stages. Among them, there is still a lot of room for growth in the field of small load grippers, and truly innovative products, technologies, or applications have not yet emerged. Indeed, as one of the key components of robots, the gripper directly determines the quality and efficiency of the robot's work. The flexibility and reliability of the gripper have created more competitiveness and value for the application of robots. This means that only enterprises that truly serve specific applications and master core technologies can gain recognition from more users and lead the domestic substitution of the gripper market.

To enter more industries, it still depends on the reliability of the gripper in specific application scenarios. After continuous exploration, Niraite robots have mature and reliable landing products in various segmented industries. In the field of industrial manufacturing, intelligent machines and manual claws developed specifically for multi frequency and multi product mixed line production, used for product packaging and loading/unloading palletizing, are creating more value for customers. In the field of intelligent warehousing, Niraite Robotics has developed a multifunctional pneumatic chuck gripper, which is suitable for adaptive planning and grasping of various items. This heavy-duty pneumatic gripper has the functions of unfolding and folding. It can not only handle cardboard boxes of different sizes through planning, but also handle large and heavy pallets. Through 3D vision, it can be applied to unmanned product delivery systems.

In the next few years, NIO Robotics will continue to deepen its technology, products, and services in the field of intelligent grasping, find two or three segmented areas, explore domestic and foreign channels, and quickly occupy the market. At the same time, we will build a leading robot team both domestically and internationally, continuously research and develop innovative technologies, and become a leading enterprise in the end clamping industry, allowing good technology and products to benefit more enterprises.
