PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an end effector and a robot capable of gripping a work-piece easily and reliably regardless of, for example, a form, hardness, an attitude, and the like, of the work-piece, when gripping the work-piece.SOLUTION: An end effector 10 is disposed at a tip of a robot arm. The end effector includes: a first finger 5a and a second finger 5b for gripping a work-piece 700; and a support body 6 for supporting the first finger 5a and the second finger 5b. The first finger 5a and the second finger 5b are constituted of a flexible belt-like body, respectively, and each of the first finger 5a and the second finger 5b includes a belt 51 abutting on the work-piece 700 and a slack adjustment mechanism 60 for adjusting at least one of a slack range in which slack of the belt 51 in a longitudinal direction is enabled and a slack amount of the belt 51 in a thickness direction within the slack range. |
