Popis: In the future the assembled parts become smaller and the precision demands increase in many cases. Grippers are one factor of the solution to make a competitive automation assembly system. Grippers have to be flexible and also capable of holding parts without dropping them during accelerations. Other demands for a gripper for mini and micro assembly applications are, among other things, accuracy and good force/size ratio. By using servo grippers also in high-precision applications for miniature-size parts, a noticeably amount of time will be saved. This paper presents two different kinds of developed two-fingered servo grippers with parallel moving mechanics, as well as the developed test systems for servo grippers and some test results.
