Hello,

I am trying to simulate a pick and place operation using the robotiq airpick vacuum gripper. Is there a way to simulate the vacuum gripping a piece and then letting it go? I've seen that you can model a 2 finger gripper as a mechanism and then create an open position and closed position, but I'm not sure how this can be applied to a vacuum gripper.

Thanks!

Since a Vacuum gripper does not usually have any mechanical movement you can just use the "Attach Object" Instruction in your program

Thanks! I will work on it.
