This compact RM-EGB Series gripper from RobustMotion fits small collaborative robots (cobots) such as the Dobot MG400. It operates at 24 VDC, which can be supplied from the MG400, and the simple PNP-type PLC interface can connect directly to the MG400 I/O ports. A simple 3D-printed adapter (139k STEP) can be used to mount the gripper to the MG400 arm.

The gripper operates by sliding a pair of fingers together or apart laterally to grip and release. These fingers, which are designed to serve as mounting points for customized (e.g. 3D-printed) extensions, are able to exert consistent force in both directions, allowing them to grab parts internally (by opening into a gap) or externally (by clamping down) with missed pickup and dropped part detection.

The gripper can cover its full 6 mm stroke length in under 0.1 s, and in addition to the fully open and fully closed extremes, two preset intermediate positions (at 2 mm and 4 mm) are achievable with ±0.02 mm repeatability. The grip strength can be controlled by selecting from four preset force levels up to 60 N. See the RM-EGB user’s manual (2MB pdf) for more information.
