Mounting the 3‑Finger Gripper and Wrist Camera on a UR Robot

Context

To combine a Robotiq 3‑Finger (3F) Gripper with a Wrist Camera on a Universal Robots (UR) arm, you’ll need an adapter that allows both devices to be mounted together. This setup enables enhanced, vision-guided manipulation—ideal for complex or adaptive pick-and-place applications.

Information

To complete this integration, you need to order the following items:

• AGS‑UR‑KIT – 3‑Finger Gripper kit for Universal Robots

• RWC5‑UR‑KIT – Wrist Camera kit for Universal Robots

• AGS‑APL‑173 – Adapter plate to mount the 3F Gripper on top of the Wrist Camera

These components are specifically designed to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility between the 3F Gripper, Wrist Camera, and the UR robot tool flange.

Installation Overview

1. Install the Wrist Camera

   • Mount the camera directly onto the UR tool flange using alignment pins and the included screws.

   • [Refer to the Wrist Camera installation manual for details.]

2. Add the Adapter Plate

   • Attach the AGS‑APL‑173 adapter plate on top of the Wrist Camera.

   • Ensure all screws are securely fastened.

3. Mount the 3‑Finger Gripper

   • Install the gripper on the adapter plate, following the mechanical mounting instructions in the 3F user manual.

   • Route cables cleanly to avoid obstruction during motion.

Conclusion

With the correct adapter and mounting sequence, you can easily combine the Robotiq 3F Gripper and Wrist Camera on a UR robot. This setup gives you the precision and adaptability of a 3‑finger grasp with the power of integrated vision.
