Welding Torches
An end effector that provides a stable and precise flame or electric arc for welding. Commonly used in automotive and manufacturing.
Impactive Grippers
Employs direct contact to hold objects, using force from impact (such as clamping).
Magnetic Grippers
Uses magnetic fields to hold and manipulate ferromagnetic materials, used in material handling and sorting.
Paint Spray Guns
Used to apply paint or coating evenly across surfaces. It is extensively used in automotive and furniture manufacturing.
Angular Grippers
A type of gripper with jaws that close at an angle, often used for grasping irregular shapes.
Laser Cutters
Uses a high-power laser to cut materials, widely used in the metal fabrication and textile industries.
Suction Cups/Vacuum Grippers
Utilizes air pressure differences to pick up and hold objects, particularly useful for smooth and non-porous items.
Aseptic Grippers
Designed for environments requiring sterilization, such as pharmaceuticals and food industry applications.
Rotary Actuators
Provides rotational motion to the end effector for tasks requiring turning or screwing motions.
Deburring Tools
Designed to remove burrs and other small imperfections from metal parts, improving the finish and quality.
Collaborative Grippers
Built to work alongside humans safely, featuring force-limiting capabilities for human-robot collaboration.
Adhesive Grippers
Uses sticky surfaces or substances to hold objects, suitable for items where vacuum or magnetic grip is impractical.
Grippers
A device that enables a robot to hold, manipulate, and release objects. Typically used in assembly, pick and place, and packaging applications.
Tool Changers
Allows the robot to switch between different tools or end effectors automatically, enhancing versatility and reducing downtime.
Screwdrivers
Automated screwdriving tools that can quickly and accurately insert screws, used in assembly lines.
Dispensing Nozzles
End effectors designed for precise delivery of glues, sealants, and other materials in manufacturing.
Ablative End Effectors
Used for material removal processes like drilling or milling, common in machining and material processing.
Parallel Grippers
Jaws move in parallel to each other to grip an object, commonly used for picking up and placing square or round parts.
Soft Grippers
Made from soft materials that conform to the shape of the object, ideal for delicate or irregularly shaped items.
Pincers
A simpler form of grippers used for picking, holding, and placing small and light objects.
Force-Torque Sensors
Equips the robot with the ability to sense forces and torques applied by or to the end effector, crucial for tasks requiring finesse.
Contigutive Grippers
Employs material continuity for holding, using methods such as surface tension or interlocking shapes.
Force Grippers
Applies a controlled amount of force to hold an object, can be set for delicate or strong grip based on the application.
Material Removal Tools
These are end effectors like drills or milling cutters used for cutting, drilling, or finishing a workpiece.
Inspection Cameras
Allows robots to perform visual inspections in quality control applications, often integrated with image processing software.
