1. General Presentation

The terms "Gripper", "Adaptive Gripper", "Robotiq Gripper", "Robotiq Adaptive Gripper", "2-Finger 85", "2-Finger 140", "2F- 85" and "2F-140" used in the following manual all refer to the Robotiq 2-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper. The Robotiq 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper has two versions, 85 and 140. The 2-Finger version will change finger opening dimensions, which will be 85 mm (2F-85) or 140 mm (2F-140). Both versions use the same base, installation and control will be exactly the same. The 2-Finger Gripper is a robotic peripheral that is designed for industrial applications. Its design makes it a unique robotic end-of-arm tool to quickly pick, place, and handle a large range of objects of varying sizes and shapes. Info Unless specified, information in this manual applies to both the 85 and the 140 mm version of the 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper. Info The following manual uses the metric system, unless specified, all dimensions are in millimeters. Info The following section presents the key features of the Gripper and must not be considered as appropriate to Gripper operation, each feature is detailed in the appropriate section of the manual. Safety guidelines must be read and understood before any operation is attempted with the Gripper. 2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual 6

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

1.1. Gripper nomenclature The 2-Finger Gripper has two articulated fingers that each have two joints (two phalanxes per finger), as shown in the figure below. The grasp-type gripper can engage up to five points of contact with an object (two on each of the phalanges plus the palm). The fingers are under-actuated, meaning they have fewer motors than the total number of joints. This configuration allows the fingers to automatically adapt to the shape of the object they grasp which simplifies the control of the gripper. Fig. 1-1: Robotiq 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper. Please refer to the Spare Parts, Kits and Accessories section for details on standard and optional parts. Warning The Led behavior can change depending on the communication protocol. Please contact Support for more details. The status LED presented in the figure above will be : l solid blue/red when booting l solid blue when powered with no errors (while communication is active) l solid red if minor fault occurs, see status details in the Control section. l blinking red/blue if major fault occurs, see status details in the Control section. 7

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

1.2. 2F-85 vs. 2F-140 The 2-Finger Gripper has two configurations either 85 mm opening (2-Finger 85) or 140 mm opening (2-Finger 140). The chassis remains the same, only the fingers will change. Please refer to the Mechanical Installation section for installation instructions. Finger kits are available in the Spare Parts, Kits and Accessories section. Info Details on the 2-Finger 85 and 2-Finger 140 (dimensions and specifications) can be found in the Specifications section. Fig. 1-2: The 2-Finger 85 and 140 mm versions. 8

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

1.3. Object picking The 2-Finger Gripper has a single actuator for opening and closing the fingers. The fingers automatically adapt to the shape of the object manipulated. Fingers will adopt either a parallel grasp or encompassing grasp as shown in the figure below. Info Closing or opening is done via the "Go to requested position" command sent to the gripper. Whether the fingers close to produce an encompassing or parallel grasp is determined mechanically by: l The objects's geometry; l The relative position of the object with respect to the gripper. In other words, picking the same object could result in either an encompassing or fingertip grasp based on an object's position and geometry. Fig. 1-3: 2-Finger parallel and encompassing grips. Info It is important to note that a fingertip grasp can only be performed when the fingers touch the object with the upper section of the distal phalanxes first. Inversely, for an encompassing grip, the fingers must touch the object with the proximal or the lower section of the distal phalanxes first. Also, to ensure stability, the object should be held against the gripper palm while performing an encompassing grip. Refer to Fig. 1-5 for a visual representation of the parallel and encompassing grasp regions on the distal phalanx of the 2-Finger Gripper. 9

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

The 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper also allows for internal grasping. The fingers can pick hollow objects from the inside by applying pressure with the outside of the fingers. Refer to the figure below for a visual representation and to the Picking Features section for details on the possible position commands of your gripper. Fig. 1-4: Finger internal and external grasping. 10

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

The gripper equilibrium line is the grasping region that separates the encompassing grasp from the parallel grasp. When grasping an object close enough to the inside (palm) of the gripper, the encompassing grasp will occur (unless the object size or shape is not adequate) and the fingers will close around the object. If grasped above the equilibrium line, the same object will be picked up in a parallel grasp by the fingertips and the fingers will close with a parallel motion. The figure below shows the encompassing grasp region, the equilibrium line, and the parallel grasp region on the 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper. Info The details of the equilibrium line relation between opening angle and the related position d can be found in the Mechanical specifications section. Fig. 1-5: Equilibrium line on the 2-Finger. Tip Grasping an object that could be grasped by an encompassing grasp (a cylinder for example) on the equilibrium line is not recommended, as slight variations on the position will switch the grasp from parallel to encompassing and vice versa. Robot programming should be done so that the grasping mode will be predetermined. 11

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

1.4. Setup and control The gripper is powered and controlled directly via a single device cable that carries a 24V DC supply and Modbus RTU communication over RS-485. Refer to the Electrical Setup section for wiring information and the Control section for control of the gripper (various software packages are available for control via various robot controllers). Info Robotiq Universal Controller is available when industrial communication protocols are required (other then Modbus RTU). A gripper coupling is required for using 2-Finger, the coupling will provide mechanical and electrical connectivity. Please refer to the Mechanical Installation section for installation of the coupling, to the Specifications section for technical drawings, and to the Spare Parts, Kits and Accessories section for available couplings. The 2-Finger has an embedded object detection feature using indirect sensing methods. When picking an object via the "go to" command, the gripper status will allow you to know if an object is picked or not via a simple object detection bit (0 or 1). When an object is detected, the gripper will stop. If the object is being dropped, the gripper will automatically close to keep the object until the object is detected or until the position target from the ''go to'' command is reached. For details on object detection, see Control section. 12

The operator must have read and understood all of the instructions in the following manual before handling the Robotiq

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

3.4.4. Installing a Protector Kit on the Gripper Fingers An optional protector kit (AGC-PRO-KIT-V4 / AGC-PRO-KIT-140) can be ordered to cover the fingers of the 2F-85/2F-140 and therefore protect users and assets against pinch points. You can install them using eight (8) M3 screws. Fig. 3-6: Protector Kit Installation 24

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

3.5. Electrical Setup Power and communication are established with the 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper via a single device cable. The device cable provides a 24V power supply to the gripper and enables serial RS485 communication to the robot controller. An optional Robotiq Universal Controller may be used between the gripper and the network / robot controller if fieldbus communication is required. Info RS485 signals (485+, 485- and 485 GND) are isolated from the main 24V power supply. GND can be connected to any other ground reference as long as the voltage potential between the grounds does not exceed 250V. Grounding reference is at the user's discretion. Fig. 3-7: Robotiq 2-Finger electrical isolation / grounding. 3.5.1. Electrostatic Discharge Safety Robotiq 2F-85 & 2F-140 Gripper are not ESD safe. If installed properly using the tooth lock washers, the casing and internal mechanism are grounded through the screws used to mount the gripper on the coupling. The same is true for the coupling. For the 2F grippers, the finger mechanisms and fingertips are isolated from the rest of the gripper. It is therefore not possible to discharge any electrostatic charge that would build up on the part through the gripper. 25

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

3.5.2. Pinout Interface The gripper interfaces with its coupling via a 10-spring pin connector located on its outer surface. Fig. 3-8: Pinout of the 2F-85 & 2F-140 Gripper cable-to-wrist coupling 3.5.3. Coupling to Controller Caution Use proper cabling management. Make sure to leave enough slack in the cabling to allow movement of the gripper along all axes without pulling out the connectors. Always protect the controller-side (robot side) connector of the cable with a strain relief cable clamp. If a Robotiq Universal Controller is used, please refer to the Robotiq Universal Controller manual. The figure below illustrates the wiring schematic of the 2-Finger with device cable, power supply, fuse (please refer to the Required Tools and Equipment section), and grounding. Fig. 3-9: Robotiq 2-Finger with pigtail cable and device cable wiring schematic. 26

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

The figure below illustrates the 2-Finger pigtail connector from the coupling (GRP-CPL-062 or AGC-CPL-XXX-002), the device cable on the robot side (CBL-COM-2065-XX) and their associated pinout. Fig. 3-10: Pinout of the 2-Finger pigtail and device cable. If additional cable is used, suggested cable specifications are as follows: Power supply, fusing: l minimum #22 AWG TEW, 300 V or 600 V RS485 signal : l minimum #24 AWG TEW, 300 V or 600 V l A and B signals must be balanced at 120 Ohms Single Gripper Prior to any software installation or communication setup on the robot, connect the white, green, and bare wires to the proper signal converter required (RS485-USB, RS85-RS232, Robotiq Universal Controller). Also connect the red (24V) and black (0V) wires to the power supply. Fig. 3-11: 2-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper wiring to signal converter For connection on the Robotiq Universal Controller, please refer to the Robotiq Universal Controller Manual. 27

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

Multiple Grippers It is possible for some robots to communicate with more than one gripper at once by having grippers with different IDs. It requires a M12 splitter which is used to split the signal into two different grippers. Use the M12 splitter (AGC-SPLIT-M12-2:1) to connect the two grippers to the 10m cable (CBL-COM-2065-10-HF) which gets connected to the appropriate signal converter. Fig. 3-12: Multiple grippers wiring Warning In order to connect two or more grippers at the same time on a robot, each gripper must have a coupling for the transmission of power and communication signals, a dual gripper adapter plate to mechanically mount the gripper on the robot arm, and a splitter. Please refer to the Spare Parts, Kits and Accessories section for more details. 3.6. Testing the Gripper with the Robotiq User Interface (RUI) Once installed and properly secured, your Robotiq 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper should be tested with the Robotiq User Interface test software using the provided USB converter. Follow these instructions: 1 Install the Robotiq User Interface (RUI). For details, see the Robotiq User Interface manual, available at robotiq.com/support. 2 Power up your gripper with the previously recommended power supply. 3 Execute the RUI software and select ''auto-connect'' on the connection screen. 4 You are now connected to your gripper, you can click "activate" to begin using the gripper. Caution The Activate command will initiate movement of the gripper for auto-calibration procedures. Do not interfere with the gripper. Be sure you have satisfied robot safety measures. Tip With the RUI controlling the gripper, you can go to the view menu to see input and output register values to further your understanding on how to command the gripper. You can also test grasping objects with various speed and force settings. See the Control section for details. 28

Unless specified, all values in this section are hexadecimal values.

4.1. Overview The Robotiq 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper is controlled directly via Modbus RTU using a RS 485 signal. It can also be controlled via an optional Robotiq Universal Controller using an industrial protocol. The programming of the gripper can be done with the teach pendant of the robot or by offline programming. Communication method used to control the 2-Finger Gripper does not change the control logic or the registers setup described in the following subsections. Tip To test various gripper features such as object detection and force control, use the Robotiq User Interface. To download it, go to support.robotiq.com, click on Select product > 2F-85 and 2F-140 Grippers > [any robot brand] > Software > Robotiq User Interface > DOWNLOAD ZIP. Since the Robotiq 2-Finger has its own embedded controller, you can use high-level commands, such as "Go to requested position" to control it. Info The operator can control force, speed and position of the gripper fingers. l Finger movement is always synchronized. l Finger movement is initiated via a single "Go to requested position" command. l Parallel or encompassing grip is performed automatically. l Object detection is built-in. Operator is notified after an object is picked once the "Go to" command has been initiated. The feature also works for lost or dropped objects, and the user can be alerted if an object is dropped after being detected. l In case of emergency, auto-release is engaged (open or close). Control using registers Grippers share their internal memory with the robot controller. One part of the memory is for the robot output; gripper functionalities. The other part of the memory is for the robot input; gripper status. Two types of actions are then available to a robot controller: 1. Write in the robot output registers to activate functionalities; 2. Read in the robot input registers to get the status of the gripper. The Gripper Register Mapping section maps the registers used to control the gripper or to read its status while the Robot Output Registers & Functionalities section details the output (write) register functions, and the Robot Input Registers & Status section details the input (read) register status. The figure below is a representation of the memory and the control logic of the gripper. For details, see the Control Logic Example section. 2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual 29

Register: ACTION REQUEST Address: Byte 0 Bits 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Symbols Reserved rARD rATR rGTO Reserved rACT rACT First action to be made prior to any other actions, rACT bit will activate the gripper. Clear the rACT bit to reset the gripper and clear any fault status. l 0x0 - Deactivate Gripper. l 0x1 - Activate Gripper (must stay on after activation routine is completed). Warning When setting rACT (rACT ==1), the gripper will begin movement to complete its activation feature. Info Power loss will set rACT (rACT ==1); the rACT bit must then be cleared (rACT ==0), then set again to allow operation of the gripper. Caution The rACT bit must stay on afterwards for any other action to be performed. rGTO The "Go To" action moves the gripper fingers to the requested position using the configuration defined by the other registers, rGTO will engage motion while byte 3, 4 and 5 will determine aimed position, force and speed. The only motions performed without the rGTO bit are activation and automatic release routines. l 0x0 - Stop. l 0x1 - Go to requested position. 32

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

rATR Automatic Release routine action slowly opens the gripper fingers until all motion axes reach their mechanical limits. After all motions are completed, the gripper sends a fault signal and needs to be reinitialized before any other motion is performed. The rATR bit overrides all other commands excluding the activation bit (rACT). l 0x0 - Normal. l 0x1 - Emergency auto-release. Caution The automatic release is meant to disengage the gripper after an emergency stop of the robot. The automatic release is not intended to be used under normal operating conditions.

4.5.2. Re-Grasp Re-grasp feature is a built-in feature meant to prevent object lost due to slipping or inaccurate initial grip. The Re-grasp feature allows the gripper to initiate movement when an object is slipping or dropped. When Re-grasping, the gripper will attempt to close until it reaches the position request (rPR) . l This feature is automatically set according to the force request rFR. Info Feature is off at force request rFR = 0, otherwise it is on. l Re-grasp will keep the position setting: l Finger motion will stop when rPR position is reached, even if there is no object. l Force and speed settings are not used, Re-grasp force and speed will automatically adjust to keep the object from being lost / dropped. Info While your initial settings for force and speed are not used for Re-grasp, they will never be exceeded to prevent damaging the object. Caution The gOBJ status is cleared when a finger motion is detected. 45

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

4.5.3. Object detection When the gripper grabs an object, gOBJ status will allow you to know if contact with the object was successful. This is a built-in feature for adaptive grippers meant to be used by the robot controller (or PLC) commanding the overall application. The Object detection feature will change the gOBJ status and can be used inside your robot program. As stated in the previous section: gOBJ: Only valid if gGTO = 1. l 0x00 - Fingers are in motion towards requested position. No object detected. l 0x01 - Fingers have stopped due to a contact while opening before requested position. Object detected. l 0x02 - Fingers have stopped due to a contact while closing before requested position. Object detected. l 0x03 - Fingers are at requested position. No object detected or object has been lost / dropped. Example of contact detected with an object: 1. Set position, speed and force at maximum (full closing): a. rPR == 0xFF, rSP == 0xFF, rFR ==0xFF, 2. Set ''go to requested'' will initiate movement : a. rGTO == 0x01 3. Then object detection status will be "in motion" a. gOBJ = 0x00 4. Until an object is picked, object detection status will then be "stopped due to contact while closing" a. gOBJ = 0x02 5. The user can now assume it is holding the payload, and proceed to the next step. Example of contact lost with an object: 1. From previous example, after an object is picked a. gOBJ = 0x02 2. If the gOBJ status displays 0x03 after it was 0x02, user can assume contact with the object has been lost. 46

4.7. Modbus RTU Communication The gripper can be controlled by Modbus RTU directly with RS485-RS232 using the ACC-ADT-RS232-RS485, or over USB using the ACC-ADT-USB-RS485. This section is intended to provide guidelines for setting up a Modbus master that will adequately communicate with the gripper. For a general introduction to Modbus RTU and for details regarding the CRC algorithm, the reader is invited to read the Modbus over serial line specification and implementation guide available at: http://www.modbus.org/docs/Modbus_over_serial_line_V1_ 02.pdf. For debugging purposes, the reader is also invited to download one of many free Modbus scanners such as the CAS Modbus Scanner from Chipkin Automation Systems available at: http://www.store.chipkin.com/products/tools/cas-modbus-scanner. Info Modbus RTU is a communication protocol based on a Big Endian byte order. Therefore, the 16-bit register addresses are transmitted with the most significant byte first. However, the data port is in the case of Robotiq products based on the Little Endian byte order. As such, the data parts of Modbus RTU messages are sent with the less significant byte first. Tip Modbus RTU specification and details can be found at www.modbus.org. 48

Each register (word - 16 bits) of the Modbus RTU protocol is composed of 2 bytes (8 bits) from the gripper. The first gripper output Modbus register(0x07D0) is composed from the first 2 Robotiq Gripper bytes (byte 0 and byte 1). Info 200 Hz is the maximum speed when commanding / reading from the Robotiq Gripper. It is therefore recommended to send commands with a minimum delay of 5 ms between them. Info Maximum baud rate of ACC-ADT-USB-RS485 is 115200 bps. 120 Ohms termination resistor is already present on the converter and the gripper. If multiple grippers are connected in parallel on the same RS485 cable, termination resistor must be set to OFF in communication parameters. 49

5.2.1. Payload and force Friction Grip payload equation: Where: l is payload weight l is the force applied by the gripper to the load l is the friction coefficient between fingertip and part load l is a safety factor to be determined by the robot integrator Fig. 5-18: Grasping force on 2-Finger 85 fingertips. Info l The Gripper is self-locking. Info For example, if the NBR overmolded fingertips AGC-TIP-MLD-KIT-85 are used to lift a lubricated steel part (machine tending with cutting oils), the friction coefficient would be 0.3 (tested static coefficient of friction). The maximum weight with a safety factor of 2.4 using the maximum grasping force of 130 N would be : W = (2 x 130 N x 0.3) / 2.4 = 32.5 N This calculation means that a 3.3 kg part will be held by the gripper when not moving (standing still). When accelerating, the payload will decrease. The biggest factor in such calculations will always be the friction coefficient, we recommend testing the coefficient. Warning In payload calculations, take robot acceleration into account Robot emergency stops will lead to major deceleration velocities. 79

Info The angle to calculate the TCP for grippers mounted on a dual gripper assembly is as follows: l Rx = 0 l Ry+/Ry- = 0.7854 l Rz = 0 The moment of inertia are calculated for a configuration where the fingers are fully open. Here is the approximate moment of inertia matrix for the gripper: Fig. 5-20: Inertia matrix for Robotiq 2-Finger . 82

2F-85 & 2F-140 - Instruction Manual

5.2.4. Moment and Force Limits The 2-Finger Adaptive Gripper has limits for moment and force values. The maximum moment and force values are independent of the grasp force the gripper applies on its payload. For payload calculation, refer to the Payload and force section. Warning Always operate within range. Calculation of maximum moments and forces should include robot accelerations and safety factors. Parameters Finger Option 2-Finger 85 2-Finger 140 Fx, Fy, Fz 50 N 25 N Mx* 5 Nm 5 Nm My* 5 Nm 5 Nm Mz 3 Nm 3 Nm * Moments in x and y are calculated from the base of the fingertips as shown in Fig. 5-22. Fig. 5-21: Maximum moment and force values Fig. 5-22: Maximum recommended grip force in the Y and Z axis for the 2-Finger 85 and 2-Finger 140. Usage example with listed limits : l After picking its normal payload, the robot can use the 2-Finger 85 Gripper to apply up to 50 N of force in any direction. Apply- ing more then 50 N can damage the gripper or result in payload loss. l A gripper can pick up a screwdriver and apply 3 Nm of torque to screw ( such moment would be applied in the Z axis). 83
