The Edge Gripping End Effector is an intelligent robot add-on, which provides
accurate edge gripping and handling of substrates, eliminating any contact with
the substrate top or bottom surfaces. It can be easily integrated in most of the
Genmark Robots product lines, expanding the versatility of the robots
applications.
Main Features:
- Edge gripping and handling of substrates
- High accuracy, performance and reliability
- Controlled gripping force
- Cost-effective, seamless integration with the Genmark robots
