ROBOTIQ EXPANDS THE ADAPTIVE GRIPPERS LINE WITH OUR LARGEST AND STRONGEST ROBOT GRIPPER SO FAR
Robotiq unveils the 2-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper - 200 - a flexible electric gripper with 200 mm of stroke and expanded capabilities to reduce tooling costs, eliminate changeovers, and maximize ROI. Use one off-the-shelf robot gripper to handle all your large parts through 3 gripping modes
May 23rd 2013 - Robotiq unveils 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."
- Samuel Bouchard, President Robotiq.
MAIN FEATURES
This new servo-electric gripper can be installed on any industrial robot to provide unparalleled 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.

Schmalz Technology Development - The Right Gripper for Every Task
In order to interact with their environment and perform the tasks, lightweight robots, like all industrial robots, depend on tools - and in many cases these are vacuum grippers. These form the interface to the workpiece and are therefore a decisive part of the overall system. With their help, the robots can pick up, move, position, process, sort, stack and deposit a wide variety of goods and components. Vacuum gripping systems allow particularly gentle handling of workpieces, a compact and space-saving system design and gripping from above. Precisely because the object does not have to be gripped, the vacuum suction cupenables gapless positioning next to each other.
