Tool for use in robot for gripping and transporting e.g. aluminum pressed workpiece to motor vehicle, has blocks comprising hollow portions, where shape of each portion is predetermined in order to match with shape of portion of workpiece

摘要

The tool (2) has multiple suction cups (5) arranged on a surface of a sheet steel/aluminum pressed workpiece (9) to hold the workpiece during transportation. Multiple blocks (10) comprise hollow portions (11), where shape of each hollow portion is predetermined in order to match with shape of a portion of the workpiece for immobilizing the portion of the workpiece during transportation. The blocks are made from molded plastic, where each suction cup includes a U-shaped cross section at a bottom part of the hollow part. Two rigid antennas (4) are transversely fixed to a rigid core.
