Abstract
A robotic gripper apparatus for coupling to a vehicle component includes an end effector having a frame, at least one gripper, and a first jig. The gripper is mounted to the frame and is configured to grip the first vehicle component. The first jig is mounted to the frame and is configured to align the first vehicle component relative to the first end effector. The first jig is made of an elastomeric material and has a shape that corresponds to a shape of the first vehicle component.
