Milan

Hi All,

I am trying to use the robotiq Epick gripper with my UR5e robot. The targeted object's weight is around 40gm but still, we are unable to pick it even if we have a gap of 1mm between object's surface and the part. To successfully pick the object we have to move the robot in such a way that the suction cup attaches to the object's surface. Please note that I am using the suction at 100% capacity. Is this behavior expected? 

Please let me know if you need any more information on this.

Thanks

To pick an object with ePick you have to come in contact with this object.
Why don't go in contact with the object for the pick ?
