Abstract
The invention relates to a gripping device () and a method for the monitored movement of objects (), preferably sheet metals, comprising a system control () configured for processing object data () and controlling a gripping module (), wherein the gripping module () has at least two gripping jaws () formed to cooperate with one another, which form an intermediate receiving space () for receiving at least parts of an object () to be monitored and transported, and the gripping jaws () are formed such that, by applying a pre-definable clamping force (), at least a friction-type connection between the gripping jaws () and at least parts of the object () is made possible, whereby the object () is movable, and at least one sensor element () for collecting object data () of the object () to be moved and monitored, wherein the at least one sensor element () is arranged on at least one gripping jaw () with its sensor region () facing the receiving space (), and is formed such that it detects, by means of at least temporary collection of the object data (), a relative movement and/or relative velocity () of the object () with respect to at least one of the gripping jaws ().
