Abstract: An improved end effector (95) for use with a robot (36) includes a pair of carriages (97).
Each carriage (97) supports a pair of fingers (107) and at least one actuator (210). Each actuator (210) is
interconnected with the associated pair of fingers (107) to counter-rotate the fingers (107).
One or both of the carriages (97) is movable toward the other carriage to engage trays (60)
on a conveyor system (66) with the fingers (107). The robot (36) moves the end effector (95) between
the conveyor system (66) and shipping containers for shipping the trays. Because the
pairs of fingers (107) counter-rotate, the friction forces between each finger (107) and the tray (60)
is offset by the friction forces between the other finger (107) in the pair and the tray (60).
The improved end effector (95) thereby maintains trays (60) substantially in the desired
stacking orientation within the shipping container. Preferably, an actuator (210) is
provided for each finger. A change-out mechanism may also be provided to
facilitate replacing the fingers (107).
