Soft Gripper uses three interchangeable silicone cups in different shapes to handle hard-to-grasp, fragile and oddly sized items, such as bottles and irregularly shaped containers.

Soft Gripper This end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) from OnRobot uses three interchangeable silicone cups in different shapes to handle hard-to-grasp, fragile and oddly sized items, such as bottles and irregularly shaped containers. It has a delicate, precise touch and can grasp any item weighing less than 4.9 pounds and measuring from 11mm to 118mm.  

What’s new? The EOAT, which is FDA-certified for food applications. 

Benefits Versatility. The Soft Gripper quickly and seamlessly integrates with most types of collaborative robots and light industrial robots. Unlike traditional vacuum grippers, it does not need an external air supply, which reduces the complexity and cost.
