Expanded Adaptive Grippers Line



Robotiq introduces the 2-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper-200, an electric gripper with 200 mm of stroke and expanded capabilities.

The 2-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper-200 has been designed using feedback from many automation engineers, who were challenged with the processing of a wide variety of large parts and high changeover rates, in industries such as:

  • Automotive parts
  • Metal fabrication
  • Construction equipment (heavy machinery)
  • Foundries.

"As with all Robotiq Adaptive Grippers, the goal remains the same: Use a single, mechanically intelligent robot gripper to handle all your parts to reduce tooling costs, eliminate changeovers and maximize ROI," said Samuel Bouchard, President Robotiq.

The new servo-electric gripper can be installed on any industrial robot to provide versatility:

  • Programmable 200 mm stroke to pick various part sizes.
  • Three distinct gripping modes - parallel, encompassing and internal - enable the handling of different part geometries.
  • Rugged design and sealed casing.
  • High grip force to handle heavy parts.
  • Grip detection and real-time finger position feedback.
  • Control of finger speed and force to adapt on-the-fly to heavy or light parts.
