Smart Gripper ™ 3.0
(Patent Pending)
Applied Robotics' Smart Gripper ™ 3.0
Specifically designed for precision and application
flexibility.
Smart Gripper ™ 3.0 pictured with optional fingers
The Smart Gripper (TM) 3.0 is a precision movement gripper
for end-of-arm tooling, utilizing a synchronous timing belt,
stepper motor, and fail-safe brake drive line to provide a
robust and controlled gripping solution.
Integrated control electronics with an encoder provide fullyprogrammable, closed-loop operation of the gripper that
works with robot controllers for a seamless solution to your
various material handling needs.
An integrated “object present” sensor provides enhanced
programmability and usability.
Interchangeable fingers are designed to hold or carry parts and
pieces of all sizes with various degrees of force. Fingers can be
designed by the user, or provided by Applied Robotics, Inc.
Not exactly what your application requires? The Smart Gripper
3.0 is fully scalable. Applied Robotics can design a solution that
meets your particular application needs.
