ABSTRACT

The invention refers to a gripper for the separation of layers of a deformable
material, the layers being stacked on a surface, comprising a foot (10)
configured to be fastened to a robot, two arms for the grabbing of the layers
and a motor (20) for the movement of the arms, wherein a first arm comprises a
shaft (3) where a plurality of rolls (1, 2) is located, and a second arm
comprises at least one finger (4) which further comprises a tip (6) with a
longitudinal configuration, a housing (5), where one end of the tip (6) is
fixed, and a spring (14), located within the housing (5) that provides
longitudinal movement to the tip (6), wherein, one of the rolls (1, 2)
comprises protuberances (13) on the surface to provide a friction surface, and
the second arm is configured to move towards the first arm.
