Custom end effector concept

Shown here is a custom end effector design that attaches to an ergonomic lifter. Rubber pads pivot +/- a set degree to grab cylindrical parts that have degreed tapers on them. Once the end effector grabs the part, it can be lifted up/down and also rotated 360 degrees. Fabricated out of sheet metal and machined steel parts. Designed and rendered in Solidworks.
