Unlike standard grippers that require complex PWM signals to operate a servo, this mechanical claw is driven by a simple DC gear motor equipped with a standard two-wire (red and black) connection. The gear-driven parallel jaw mechanism ensures that the inner gripping surfaces remain parallel throughout their range of motion, providing a secure and symmetrical hold on objects of varying shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable at Tomson Electronics, this gripper is an essential component for pick and place robot applications.

Applying voltage in one direction closes the jaws, and reversing the polarity opens them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I plug this directly into an Arduino?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: No. Microcontroller pins cannot supply enough current to drive the DC motor directly. You must use an intermediate motor driver module (such as the L298N or the recommended L293D shield) connected between the Arduino and the gripper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does it have limit switches to stop the motor when fully open or closed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: No. You must manage the timing in your code or monitor the motor's current draw to turn off the power once the jaws have securely gripped the object or reached their maximum 58mm opening. Leaving the motor powered when stalled can cause it to overheat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × DC Motor Robotic Claw Gripper (Assembled)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tomson Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49518145732846,"sku":"RBA-03028","price":899.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2132\/9029\/files\/ROBOT_GRIPPER.jpg?v=1788176817","url":"https:\/\/www.tomsonelectronics.com\/products\/dc-motor-robotic-claw-gripper-for-robotic-arm","provider":"Tomson Electronics ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
