Gripper. The Adaptive Gripper has three articulated fingers, i.e. Finger A in front of Finger B and Finger C, that each have three joints (three phalanxes per finger), as shown in Figure 1.1. The Gripper can engage up to ten points of contact with an object (three on each of the phalanges plus the palm).
Page 5
Instruction Manual Two different types of movements can be performed with the Gripper. The first determines the type of grip being used and simultaneously changes the orientation of Fingers B and C as shown in Figure 1.2. This movement is referred to as the 'Operation Mode'.
Page 6
Figure 1.3 : The four Operation Modes of the 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper. The second movement of the Gripper is the closing and opening of the fingers as shown in Figure 1.4. This action is performed with a single input from the user. Each finger is not controlled independently; the Gripper itself closes each finger until it reaches a stable configuration, on an object or against the Gripper palm.
Page 7
Robotiq 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper Instruction Manual Two types of grips occur when closing the 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper on an object: Fingertip Grip or Encompassing Grip. Fingertip Grip is when an object is only held by the distal phalanxes. This type of grip is similar to what is done with conventional industrial parallel grippers.

Programming Decommissioning This documentation explains the various components of the 3-Finger Gripper and its general operation. Please read this documentation thoroughly and be sure to understand its contents before handling the 3-Finger Gripper. The drawings and photos in this documentation are representative examples and differences may exist between them and the delivered product.
Do not install or operate a Gripper that is damaged or lacking parts. Never supply the Gripper with an alternative current source. Make sure all cord sets are always secured at both ends, at the Gripper and at the robot. Always respect the recommended keying for electrical connections.
Robotiq 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper Instruction Manual 2.2 Intended use The Gripper unit is designed for gripping and the temporary secure holding of parts. Caution The Gripper is NOT intended for applying force against objects or surfaces. The product is intended for installation on a robot or other automated machinery and equipment.

3.3 Mechanical connections You must use a coupling to attach the Gripper to the robot. Be sure to use the coupling related to your robot model. If there is no coupling for your robot, you can modify a blank coupling model or Robotiq can create a custom version based on blanks in section 6.6...
3.4 Power supply specifications The Gripper needs to be supplied by a DC voltage source. This power supply is not included with the Gripper. The following table shows the specifications regarding the power supply required to operate the Gripper properly.
Two connections are needed for the 3-Finger Gripper , one for power and one for communication. On the Gripper, both are located on the Connection Panel shown in Figure 3.5.1. Figure 3.5.1 : Power, USB and communication receptacles shown with USB cover removed.
Page 18
Use proper cabling management. Be sure to have enough forgiveness in the cabling to allow movement of the Gripper along all axes without putting tension on the cable or pulling out the connectors. Always protect the controller-side connector of the cable with a strain relief cable clamp.
Figure 3.5.1.1 : Power connection diagram of the 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper. Caution The 4A fuse is external to the Gripper. It is not provided by Robotiq and the user is responsible for proper installation. The pin-out of the power connectors is detailed in Figure 3.5.1.2.

Info RS485 communication is standard on all 3-Finger Grippers, see the Serial Communication Protocol section. If not using RS485 communication, simply leave the two wires unconnected.
The following table summarizes the communication protocols available for the Gripper. Note that only one protocol option is available in a given Gripper unit. The Gripper that you have was configured before shipment with only one of the following protocols.
DeviceNet standard requires a 120 Ohms resistor to be mounted at the beginning and at the end of the line. If the Gripper is the end of line, then a 120 Ohms resistor must be mounted between pin 4 and 5.

Figure 3.5.2.6 shows the pin-out of the communication connectors when used in serial mode for the receptacle (male) present on the 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper and the cable (female) provided with your Gripper.
Since the Robotiq 3-Finger Gripper has its own internal controller, high-level commands such as "Go to requested position" are used to control it. The embedded Robotiq controller takes care of the regulation of the speed and the force prescribed, while the mechanical design of the fingers automatically adapts to the shape of object(s).

For example, picking up a thin object in a Fingertip Grip may be successful without object detection occurring. For this reason, use this feature with caution. In these applications the "Gripper is stopped" status of register gSTA is sufficient to proceed to the next step of the routine.

0x0F - Automatic release completed. Reset and activation is required. Caution All major faults will require you to reset the Gripper (rACT bit == 0 then rACT bit == 1) which will initiate motion from the Gripper for the re-calibration procedure before recovering normal control of the Gripper.

The Adaptive Gripper requires only external maintenance with limited downtime. Maintenance of the 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper is required after specified usage, measured in time (normal 40h week) or in cycles (requesting an open and close movement from the Gripper). Following the maintenance interval will ensure : Correct functioning of your Gripper.
Page 106
Robotiq 3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper Instruction Manual Maintenance operations are for average normal usage of the Gripper, the maintenance intervals must be adjusted according to environmental conditions such as: Operating temperature Humidity Presence of chemical(s) Presence of physical parts (debris, scraps, dust, grease etc.)
Rotate the screwdriver counter clockwise to open the finger. Clean the Gripper with a dry towel, remove all debris, dirt and dust from the surface of the Gripper. Visually inspect the Gripper and pay attention to any visible wear or damage.
When the finger is closed the finger base cogs are visible, clean excess grease with a dry tissue or towel, then apply grease between the gear cogs (use the Mobilith SHC grease syringe provided by Robotiq). Completely open the finger and then completely close the finger, this will allow the grease to spread.
7.4 Finger Pad Replacement Check for any collision damage, if damage is visible, contact Robotiq Support. Check for any sign of wear on the Gripper chassis, if wear is present and may affect Gripper performance, contact Robotiq Support. Put the Gripper back in place, make sure to maintain the initial orientation of your Gripper.

Use the same protocol options (fixed IP, auto-neg, full duplex, etc.) as shown in the Communication protocol panel. Set your Ethernet network card to use fixed addresses other than the Gripper address. Set your master Ethernet network card to use fixed addresses other than the Gripper address (for example use 192.168.1.10 if Gripper address is 192.168.1.11).
