1.1.8. Extra Reach Gripper Bracket

The extra reach gripper bracket is included in the Solution to extend the AirPick Gripper of 200 mm from the robot tool flange. This
way, the Robotiq Palletizing Solution will be able to palletize boxes on large size pallets. Please refer to the Extra Reach Bracket
section for more details about the limitations of the extension bracket

Fig. 1-3: AirPick Vacuum Gripper Extra Reach Bracket

1.1.9. Box Detection Sensor

The Solution includes a box sensor that needs to be installed at the end of the conveyor in a way that it is triggered when a box is
ready to be picked up.
