Can we self made gripper for the uARm?

[Sheng_Yao_Yap]

Greetings everyone here.

I am an undergraduate student who currently enroll in my study at Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia.
I was currently in a FYP project of building an autonomous battery-swapping station for the drone Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual. Currently, the only robotics arm my uni manages to provide me is uArm Swift Pro. Here are some questions I came across when designing the station using uArm.

(PS: The pandemic situation had delay all the delivery within my country. In short, I dun really have the uArm and drone beside me at this point, the step file provided by customer service are can’t help much on my design tho.)

1. Did any of u ever self-design a gripper for the Arm before using 3D printing? If yes may I have some guide on it?

2. The battery weighs 297g, located 300mm away from the base of the arm. Does the arm have enough torque grab it up?

Hello,

1. yes, you can gain information on the gripper from the link：https://www.ufactory.cc/products/uarm-uarm-accessories
2. The max payload of the uarm is 500g.
   For more detailed information，you can refer to the uarm user manual：https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0012/6979/2886/files/uArm_pro_User_Manual_v1.1.0.pdf?v=1597982244

Hii, thks for the reply.

I do realize that there is a gripper model from Ufactory.
What I trying to say is that can we customize one for it. Like 3D printing a gripper and attach it to the end effector or purchasing a third party gripper and attach to it. The one-point grabbing design is a bit off when trying to grab a Mavic battery without rotating it. Instead, I would more prefer to build a multipoint grabbing design similar to this. Hence, i was trying to look for person who had experiences in such topic.

Hello,
I’m sorry, we don’t provide the kind of gripper customization.
