Why Soft Gripper?

The OnRobot Soft Gripper is able to pick a wide array of irregular shapes and delicate items, making it ideal for pick-and-place applications in food and beverage production, as well as manufacturing or packaging. The gripper is available with three interchangeable silicon-molded cups. From eggs to fruit, to bottles or cans, food and beverage automation just got easier. Like all OnRobot grippers, the Soft Gripper offers seamless integration with the robot of your choice. The Soft Gripper operates without an external air supply, for no additional costs or complexity, and none of the dust or noise generated by traditional vacuum grippers.

The Soft Gripper’s Advantages and Features

The new OnRobot Soft Gripper is available with three interchangeable silicon-molded cups to handle a wide array of irregular shapes and delicate items, making it ideal for pick-and-place applications in food and beverage and other “clean” production applications such as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, as well as manufacturing or packaging. The Soft Gripper comes with OnRobot’s revolutionary Quick Changer, a base unit, and silicon cups in star or finger versions for greater flexibility. The Soft Gripper’s silicon cups are dishwasher-safe and comply with FDA 21 CFR (for non-fatty food items) and EC 1935/2004 for food handling. Maximum payload of 2.2 kg depends on shape, softness, and friction of items to be handled, and grip dimensions range from 11mm to 118mm, depending on cup used.

INTEGRATED SOFTWARE

The gripper comes with pre-integrated software that is easy to install and program, so even employees with no technical background can set it up.

The whole team at Cobots Online, particularly Callum who installed all the machines, were really great to work with. They’re very positive, easily contactable and helped us overcome any challenges we encountered when installing the cobots.

Anthony Gough, Production Manager

We chose Cobots Online because they’re cost-effective and we get a lot of support off the team, either we can visit their site or give them a call and they’ll come down to support our team.

David Clark, Continuous Improvement Engineer

Cobots Online were very knowledgeable on the cobots that have been installed on-site. They were very helpful whenever we asked questions. They always made sure we understood what they was doing and why they were doing it. Equally they were very receptive to our thoughts and ideas. It was a pleasure to work with Cobots Online.

Kevin Higgins, Operations Support Manager at Masonite UK

Working with Cobot Online I found a positive collaboration between education & industry which proved to be instrumental in our procurement of industrial-standard robotics and training to support the students here at Darlington College.

Alan Jones, Curriculum Manager for Engineering

Just wanted to say how impressed I have been with Cobots Online these last few days. They have been very professional, helpful and a pleasure to work alongside. In 11 years of industry, it is not that often you come across someone so easy to work with. I've been very impressed with their knowledge and talent programming, and they've made the job look effortless.

Nicole Chamberlain, Automation and Digital Engineer

Cobots Online have supported ALM Engineering Solutions from the initial idea through to the implementation and commissioning stages. Their knowledge, training and on-going support after the installation have been excellent. The finished result does exactly as they’d promised.

Aaron Walford, Production Manager

I found Cobots Online to be approachable, direct and honest. This approach allowed us to meet our deadlines, within budget and to a high standard. Our expectations were fully met, with added value throughout our project timeline. Cobot Online has supported local skills development and we would not hesitate to recommend them.
