A gripper for gripping an item, particularly a plate shaped item, includes a base, and a first jaw member and a second jaw member movable to grip the item. To ensure release of the item from the jaw members and thereby precise delivery of the item, the gripper comprises a guard structure forming contact surfaces located such that inner surfaces of the other jaw member moves between positions on opposite sides of the contact surface when the item is gripped and released.

Gripper and a method of using a robot with the gripper

A gripper device is configured to be attached to a robotic device and to pick up a food product from a pickup area and to release it from a releasing location to a receiving location. A method is provided for picking up a food product from a pickup area and releasing it from a releasing location to a receiving location can be used with the gripper device.

Gripper device configured to be attached to a robotic device and to pickup a food product from a pickup area and to release it from a releasing location to a receiving location

A gripper device is configured to pick up a pliable food product having a tail-like part from a pick-up area and releasing it at a releasing area, where a support is provided. A pair of jaws is mounted to the support for movement of distal ends thereof towards each other defining a closing position of the pair of jaws and away from each other defining an open position of the pair of jaws. A tail bender device is attached to the support and adjacent to one end of the pair of jaws. The tail bender device is moveable in relation to the pair of jaws and is configured to bend the tail-like part while transferring the food product from the pick-up area until releasing it at the releasing area.
