4.1.5 Notes on the ROBO Gripper
(1) Finger Operation
[1] Definition of position
With the two-finger type, the stroke specification indicates the total sum of travels by both fingers. In other
words, the travel by one finger is one-half this stroke.
A position is specified as a travel by one finger from the home position toward the closing direction.
Therefore, the maximum command value is 5 mm for the GRS type, and 7 mm for the GRM type.
[2] Definition of speed and acceleration
The command value applies to one finger.
With the two-finger type, the relative speed and acceleration are double the command values, respectively.
[3] Gripper operation mode
In applications where the work is to be gripped, be sure to use the “push-motion mode.”
