tööriistalõppseadmed

Tööriistalõppseadmed, known in English as end effectors or tooling, are the devices attached to the end of a robotic arm or manipulator. Their primary function is to interact with the environment and perform specific tasks. The design and type of end effector are dictated by the application and the objects the robot needs to handle or manipulate.

Common types of tööriistalõppseadmed include grippers, which are designed to grasp and hold objects. Grippers can be pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic, and come in various forms such as jaw grippers, vacuum grippers, and magnetic grippers, each suited for different materials and shapes. Another category is tools, such as welding torches, drills, or paint sprayers, which are integrated into the robotic system to perform assembly, manufacturing, or finishing processes. Force or torque sensors can also be incorporated into end effectors to provide feedback on the interaction forces, enabling more delicate or precise operations. The selection and implementation of the correct tööriistalõppseadmed are crucial for the efficiency and success of robotic automation.
