3. Designing and mounting the fingers#

Fingers must be designed and installed before mounting the MEGP 25* gripper on the Meca500. Designs must respect the measurements and maximum finger dimensions and loads provided in the following.

3.1. MEGP 25E mounting diagrams#

Figure 1 shows the MEGP 25E dimensions and the adapter plate provided. Each finger must be attached to the outer side of a gripper jaw using an M4X0.7 screw and two Ø1.5 mm locating pins.
