The Gripper combines functions of for the fingers, for detecting and in one single component. It is usefull for modelling standard grippers like you find the usually in automation systems in a comfortable way.
During simulation start, the Gripper component will automatically create the needed Grip and Sensor Scripts.

Time closing / Time opening Time for closing and opening the Gripper in seconds. Parts are gripped when closing time is passed. Parts are released directly after opening is started.
Gripper Width The Width of the Gripper in millimeters, when it is opened.
Open Pos Offset Offset between the current scene view position and the open position of the Gripper in millimeters.
Direction Finger The direction of the fingers in the local coordinate system of the Gripper.
Direction Closing The closing direction of the fingers in the local coordinate system of the Gripper.
Close Grippper / Open Gripper PLC signals for closing or opening the gripper
