About

About DG-5F-S

DG-5F-S packages four independently actuated joints in each of five fingers for 20 active degrees of freedom at a published mass of 880 g. It operates at 24 V, uses absolute position feedback and supports 500 Hz control through Ethernet TCP/IP or Modbus TCP.

Tesollo rates the hand for 1 kg pinching and 7 kg enveloping payloads, with published maxima of 2 kg and 12 kg. Available configurations include fingertip tactile sensing, a compact five-finger 15-DoF model for lower-weight installations and a mounting stand. Intended applications include tool use, unstructured object manipulation, assembly and fastening.
