THIS NEW DESIGN OF END OF ARM TOOLING FOR ROBOTS AND ASSEMBLY DEVICES IS PROGRAMMABLE AND WILL PERMIT RAPID CHANGING OF GRIPPER JAWS. WITH THIS SYSTEM, A ROBOT WILL NOT HAVE TO USE ASSEMBLY TIME TO DISCONNECT AND STORE A GRIPPER OR TOOL AND PICK UP ANOTHER GRIPPER OR TOOL. ALSO IT WILL NOT REQUIRE DESIGNING ASSEMBLY PARTS FOR A STANDARD GRIPPER. A DESIGN FOR A PRACTICAL AND ACCURATE SYSTEM IS PRESENTED. THIS CONCEPT CAN MAKE ROBOTIC ASSEMBLY MORE ECONOMICALLY COMPETITIVE.
