Grippers added to robot package
13 April 2015
Universal Robots from R. A. Rodriguez are proving popular for human/robot collaborative working. Indeed the latest generation of these six-jointed arms includes a patented safety system that enhances the robots’ use for tasks that require human interaction.

Now the company is extending the scope of its service to include the supply of Robotiq grippers to complete the Universal Robot package. These are off-the-shelf products available in 2-finger and 3-finger configurations and are known for their ease of integration. A notable model in the range is the 2-finger 85 which has been specifically designed for collaborative work in terms of payload, flexibility and user-friendliness.
