What it does

  • Provides the ROS 2 driver, controller and description packages for Robotiq grippers.
  • Initially supported only the 2F-85 gripper; support for the e-pick gripper is being added.
  • Aims to support multiple Robotiq gripper models, and pull requests for other grippers are welcome.
  • The main branch is used for the Rolling, Humble and Iron ROS 2 distributions.
  • API and ABI breakage is not guaranteed, since it is not a core ROS 2 package.
  • Not sponsored or maintained by Robotiq; maintained by PickNik Robotics.
