- Page 2 Notes before purchasing 1. A gripping solution built from FitGrip30 can ONLY work with objects that have similar size in a task. FitGrip30 is suitable for repetitive tasks where the object’s sizes are similar. This modular gripper FitGrip30 is not recommended for applications where sizes of objects are varied.

Page 4: Product Description
Figure 1: FitGrip30 at OPEN and CLOSE states FitGrip30 is a modular finger that can be used to build various customized gripping solutions. A gripping solution can be composed of two or multiple FitGrip30s depending on size and shape of the object that the users want to grasp. -
Page 5: Recommended Working Area
Make sure that the fingertip contacts with the object inside the recommended area which is at very end of the stroke. See Fig. 3 for relation between stroke and gripping force of FitGrip30. Note that force will be reduced when temperature is increased. Figure 2: Recommended working area of FitGrip30... - Page 6 Warning- Do the risk assessment carefully before performing a real task. Make sure that the object is at center of the jaw of the fingers. Make sure that the gripping is performed at the end of the stroke and the object is firmly gripped.

Page 11: Examples Of Building Gripping Solutions
In following examples, FitGrip30 is attached to a jig (named as Standard Jig) where the position of FitGrip30 with respect to the position of the jig is adjustable as shown in Fig. 7. FitGrip30 is attached to the Standard Jig by 4xM3 bolts. Users can use any jig which is suitable for users’ purposes. - Page 12 In this example, the set FitGrip30 and Standard Jig is attached to a flange as shown in Fig.8 and 9. Then, users adjust position of the two FitGrip30 with respect to the Standard Jig to have a fit grip between object and grippers. When the positions are properly adjusted (to have a fit grip with the object that users want to grasp), a vertical 2-finger gripping solution is created.
- Page 13 Beside the abovementioned vertical setup, users also can have horizontal setup with FitGrip30. Both sides of FitGrip30 provide mechanical interface and users can connect FitGrip30s to a jig horizontally as shown in Fig. 11. Then, user can combine both horizontal and vertical setup into a system to build a dual-gripper configuration as shown in Fig.

Page 18: Electrical Setup And Control
3. Electrical setup and control FitGrip30 is supplied by 24V DC power (power port is noted as PWR). It supports 2 5V DC control input signals (noted as CS1, CS2) where each control signal controls OPEN/CLOSE of 2 fingers (noted as OUT1, OUT2). -
Page 19: Fingertips
III. Fingertips Two types of fingertip are provided for FitGrip30. First one is a simple frictional fingertip providing high friction between the fingertip and metal objects. Second one is more suitable with glass material objects. It does not only support normal frictional grip but also provides form-fit grip. - Page 20 Figure 19: Basic fingertip with high friction with metal parts Figure 20: FitGrip30 with basic fingertip APICOO ROBOTICS – FitGrip30 User Manual...
-
Page 21: Form-Fit Fingertip
This form-fit fingertip has high friction with glass material objects. Similarly, form-fit fingertip can be attached to the finger in vertical or horizontal ways as shown in Fig. 20 Figure 21: Form-fit fingertip Figure 22: FitGrip30 with form-fit fingertip APICOO ROBOTICS – FitGrip30 User Manual...
