Flexible moulding jaws for grippers

Abstract

Problems in the application of industrial robots for the handling of workpieces in small series production and in assembly arise from the gripper's structure among other things. The differences in form and weight of the workpieces make it impossible in most cases to apply a single traditional gripper for all workpieces to be handled in one installation.
