Actuators
It is possible to connect various actuators to the last connecting tube of the articulated
arm. We generally recommend a plastic adapter element for this. igus
®
GmbH already
provides standard adapter elements for pneumatic grippers from FESTO
®
and SCHUNK
®
,
for electrical grippers from GIMATIC
®
, and also for suction systems. Cameras or lighting
sources (e.g. LED) can also be adapted.

Our own draw wire gripper from igus
®
GmbH can also be mounted on the tube. 2 versions
are possible:
1) Wire force opens, spring force closes,
2) wire force closes, spring force opens.
The spring force can be configured between 20 and 100 N.
