8-Cup Vacuum Gripper End Effector

Create a simple industrial vacuum pick-and-place end effector for an ABB robot. MAIN GRIPPER PLATE: - Overall length: 360 mm - Overall width: 100 mm - Plate thickness: 10 mm - Rectangular aluminum mounting plate - Rounded corners with radius 10 mm VACUUM CUP ARRANGEMENT: - Exactly 8 vacuum suction cups. - The suction cups MUST be arranged in exactly 2 parallel rows. - Each row MUST contain exactly 4 suction cups. - Arrangement: 2 rows × 4 columns. - The two rows must run along the 360 mm length of the plate. - The 4 cups in each row must be equally spaced along the 360 mm length. - The two rows must be separated across the 100 mm width. - The cups in both rows must be aligned with each other, forming 4 pairs. - Do NOT create a single row of 8 cups. - Do NOT create more than 2 rows. - Do NOT create fewer than 8 cups. VACUUM CUP DIMENSIONS: - Cup diameter: 30 mm - Cup height: 20 mm - All 8 cups must have identical dimensions. - The cups must extend 15 mm below the mounting plate. CUP POSITION: - The center of the first and last columns should be approximately 30 mm from the corresponding ends of the 360 mm plate. - The four columns must be equally spaced along the length. - The two rows must be centered across the 100 mm width. - Row center positions should be approximately 25 mm and 75 mm across the width. - Each cup must be perpendicular to the plate and point downward. VACUUM MANIFOLD: - Create a simple vacuum manifold connecting all 8 suction cups. - Use one central vacuum inlet on the top of the plate. - Create two longitudinal vacuum distribution lines, one for each row. - Connect each distribution line to its four suction cups. - Keep the manifold geometry simple and suitable for RobotStudio. ROBOT MOUNTING: - Add one central mounting bracket on the top of the plate. - Center the bracket at approximately X=180 mm and Y=50 mm. - Include a simple flat mounting surface with four mounting holes. - The bracket is a visual representation of the ABB robot tool connection. DESIGN REQUIREMENTS: - Exactly 8 vacuum cups. - Exactly 2 rows. - Exactly 4 cups per row. - 2 × 4 rectangular arrangement. - Keep the geometry simple and lightweight for RobotStudio. - Avoid unnecessary small details. - Main plate, suction cups, manifold and robot mounting bracket should be separate solids. - Units must be millimeters. - Exportable as STEP and STL.
