are some of the major players in the robot end-effector market. The increasing use of robots in multiple applications is enabling the development of more capable end-effectors. In January 2019, Acutronic Robotics introduced its ROS 2 robot grippers with the collaboration of Robotiq. The company aims to considerably reduce the system integration efforts with these grippers, making it easier to repair, extend, and build the robots.
Companies are introducing grippers, which can be used for a greater number of applications. In June 2019, New Scale Robotics launched its NSR-PG-10-20-URe Precision Parallel Gripper with a measurement precision of 2.5µm. This gripper is highly suitable for assembly tasks, handling intricate parts, and lab automation processes. In March 2019, ABB Limited announced the expansion of its advanced manufacturing operations in the Senatobia, Mississippi (U.S.). The company invested USD 36 million for its expansion.
