How to control Robotiq gripper on Kinova robot?
Knowledge
The Kinova Gen3 is equipped with a Robotiq gripper mechanical and electrical connection at the wrist. So you can simply order a single unit gripper. Here are some SKUs :
- 2F85 : AGC-GRP-2F85
- 2F140 : AGC-GRP-2F140
- Hand-E : HND-GRP
- E-Pick : VAC-GRP-EPICK
The Kinova JACO and Gen2 robots have a quite specific wrist connection interface which makes things complicated to integrate the end effector.
Waypointrobotics installed near Boston designed a coupling to easily install Robotiq products at the wrist of JACO and Gen2.
It is an interesting solution to ease integration. We advise to contact them directly : Link
