Description

The anthropomorphic SCHUNK 5-finger hand grips nearly as perfectly as the human hand. Due to the moving parts with a total of nine drives, various gripping operations can be executed with high sensitivity. Elastic gripping surfaces ensure a reliable grip on objects. The electronics are completely integrated in the wrist.

Field of application

In addition to new dimensions in gripping and manipulation tasks, SCHUNK is defining the possibility of human / robot communication by gestures with the 5-finger hand.

Advantages – Your benefits

  • Suited for mobile application fields by low energy consumption at 24 V DC
  • Extremely compact design due to integration of the complete control, regulator and power electronics in wrist
  • Defined interfaces for easy connection with market-standard industrial and lightweight robots
  • ROS drivers for Kinetic

Real Life Terminator Robotic Hand

The ready for series production version of the anthropomorphic SCHUNK 5-finger hand grips nearly as perfectly as the human hand. Due to the moving parts with a total of nine drives, various gripping operations can be executed with high sensitivity. Elastic gripping surfaces ensure a reliable grip on objects. The electronics are completely integrated in the wrist.

Motion Control of Anthropomorphic Schunk 5-Finger-Hand on Robotic Arm LWA 4P

The anthropomorphic SCHUNK 5-Finger-Hand is used together with the lightweight robotic arm LWA 4P to simulate human motions. The size, weight, and flexibility of the 5-Finger-Hand are very similar to a real human hand and can be used for dexterous manipulation and gestures. A new developed ROS driver for the hand controls all nine active joints and is used together with the ROS motion driver of the 6-DOF arm. An intuitive teach-in interface with the ability to add, edit and save new key pose makes it easy to create new trajectories for a desired task. The trajectories between these key points are interpolated automatically. The hand and arm trajectories are synchronized and create smooth combined motions as shown in the video.
