Gripping hands
Whereas grippers were previously designed for industrial automation, when it comes to robustness, longevity, and performance, with gripping hands, the focus is on the aspect of flexibility of motion. The closer humans and robots work together, the greater the relevance of humanoid 5–fingered hands will be.
As the world’s first gripper certified by the DGUV for collaborative operations, the SVH 5–finger hand from SCHUNK opens up new fields of applications for human–robot collaboration and autonomous gripping and manipulation tasks. Its five fingers can carry out all kinds of gripping operations with the help of a total of nine drives. Moreover, a number of gestures can be performed, thereby facilitating visual communication between humans and the service robot.
