The SoftGripping two-finger parallel gripper is a pneumatically actuated end effector designed for gentle manipulation of light, fragile workpieces.
At 0.143 kg, this gripper generates a maximum gripping force of 7 N and is rated for workpieces up to 0.2 kg.
Its flexible food-grade fingers enable adaptive handling that conforms to irregular surfaces without damage.
The gripper's low mass makes it well-suited for collaborative robot applications and smaller automation systems where payload capacity is limited.
Pneumatic actuation provides reliable operation with minimal maintenance requirements.
The design supports plug-and-play integration with standard robot platforms.
Typical applications include pick-and-place operations in food processing and packaging, where the food-grade finger material and controlled gripping force protect sensitive products.
The gripper is appropriate for handling delicate items such as fruits, eggs, and vials where conventional rigid grippers would cause bruising or breakage.
