onRobot

Developed at The University of York

A simple gripper library to use a Universal Robot with an onRobot gripper, no onrobot compute box needed.

Supported onRobot Grippers

  • RG2
  • VG10
  • Gecko
  • SG
  • TFG
  • SDR
  • 2FG
  • MG
  • FGP

See further down for usage examples

  • Simple and easy to use!
  • No onRobot compute box needed!
  • Communicates with XML-RPC interface so is compatible with ROS driver!
  • Supports RG2 only, more coming soon!

Install instructions

pip install onrobot

Example Usage

import onRobot.gripper as gripper

rg_id = 0
ip = "192.168.56.101"
rg_gripper = gripper.RG2(ip,rg_id)

rg_width = rg_gripper.get_rg_width()
print("rg_width: ",rg_width)

target_force = 40.00

rg_gripper.rg_grip(100.0, target_force)
