Step 2: Installation of the Hand-E Gripper onto the FT Sensor
Use a coupling to attach the Gripper to the CB-Series robot. Be sure to use the appropriate coupling for your robot model. If there is no
coupling for your robot, you can process a blank coupling or Robotiq can create a custom version for you. Some couplings may require
an additional adapter plate. To create your own coupling and/ or adapter plate and to see the details of the available couplings and
adapter plates you can refer to the Couplings and the Spare Parts, Kits and Accessories sections in the Hand-E Gripper Instruction
Manual.
Here are the steps to follow to mount the Gripper to your robot (see figure below). Note that all screws must be locked in place using
medium strength threadlocker.
1. Screw the adapter plate or the coupling to the robot.
2. Screw the coupling to the adapter plate (if applicable).
3. Screw the Hand-E Gripper onto its coupling.
