The End Effector

1984
The term “end effector” is a generic word for all the systems mounted at the end of the robot — that is, at the end of the link farthest from the robot base — whose task is to grip objects, or tools, and/or transfer them from place to place.

The end-effector

1993
‘End-effector’ is the name given to the gripper or ‘pick-up’ that holds the component being processed. Most robot applications involve only the manipulation of a component between the machines that do the processing. Sometimes it carries a tool instead, to work directly on a component — for example, in drilling, welding or paint spraying.

Two Hybrid End-Effector Posture-Maintaining and Obstacle-Limits Avoidance Schemes for Redundant Robot Manipulators

IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, 2020
To fulfill path tracking tasks with the end-effector posture controlled in a complex environment, maintaining the robot manipulator end-effector posture and avoiding obstacles are two important issues needed to be considered.

End-Effector Technologies

2021
The efficiency and effectiveness of end-effectors greatly influence the overall performance of the robotic systems as they come into direct contact with the objects being manipulated by the robot. Considering the extensive need of robotic technologies for various labor-intensive tasks in agriculture, end-effectors for agricultural robots are required ...

A medium-complexity compliant end effector

Proceedings. 1988 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2003
The design of an end effector under development at Pennsylvania University is reported. The rationale supporting this mechanism is explored, its geometry is described and experimental results from the first prototype are presented. The gripper has three fingers, one fixed with respect to the palm and the other two able to rotate synchronously about ...

End-effector position-orientation measurement

IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation, 1999
A low-cost device is presented for noncontact measurement of robot position and orientation. It consists of an optical sensor and three laser scanners. The sensor is attached to the end-effector while the laser scanners cast light planes to trace the sensor movement. The device measures equations of the light planes from which end-effector position and

End-Effectors for Tomato Harvesting Robot

Artificial Intelligence Review, 1998
Two types of robotic end-effectors capable of harvesting tomato fruits were manufactured based on the physical properties of tomato plant and tested. The first prototype end-effector consisted of two parallel plate fingers and a suction pad. The fingers pick a fruit off at the joint of its peduncle after the suction cup singulates it by vacuum from ...

The End-Effector Device for Gait Rehabilitation

2018
Today’s concepts of motor learning address the demand for adequate therapy solutions with a task-specific approach. Since the 1990s, robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) has become a promising approach, alongside conventional rehabilitation, for treating gait disturbances in patients with neurological disease. RAGT devices enable the patient to practice
