The Robot Claw：A Good Assistant In The Life
Ⅰ What is a robot claw?
If you combine with robots and sensors,you can get mechanical grippers which allows robots to adapt to complex industrial environments, handle tasks that need to be done repeatedly, work 24 hours, and exceedingly reduce labor costs in factories. Since robot claws can be automatically controlled, robots often have multiple grippers. So, what exactly is a robot claw? What are its main features?
Ⅱ Main features
The key feature of a mechanical gripper is its flexibility. It looks like a human hand and, once programmed, it can perform tasks like picking, moving, placing, packaging,assembling and so on. Another important feature is its speed. By combining programming and control, this gripper can free up human hands, boost industrial productivity and profitability, reduce the pressure of labor-intensive work, and get out physical strain on workers. A mechanical grippers is an automation device mainly used on production lines to work more efficiently.
Ⅲ Types
By structure: Two-finger grippers, three-finger grippers, multi-finger grippers, soft grippers.
By drive type: Pneumatic drive, electric drive, hydraulic drive.
By gripping method: Tactile-sensing grippers, suction grippers, magnetic grippers.
In everyday life, we often see cleaners using something similar to a mechanical grippers to pick up trash. This offers two main benefits: First, the handle reduces the need for bending over. Second, it minimizes contact with trash, helping maintain personal hygiene. If you add a sensor to this, the system or device can gather information from the surroundings and respond accordingly, opening up more potential applications.
Although mechanical grippers can be applied in many field.For exemple,the technique of mechanical grippers have complex feature,whitch need complicate control system to opera accurately.With the increase of demand of industries,the task of robot claw is more and more diverse,which asks more accurre and flexible action.However,Nowadays technique level can not satisfy the need.
Application of mechanical grippers can improve the productivity,however,robot claw of high research cost and cost of production are big questions that keep it from development. mechanical grippers with high-profile,strong power tend to be more expensive.Specially including them that equipped with multi-finger flexibility or advanced.Thus,many MSE can not hold the investment in mechanical grippers,and resist popularization their market.
