The BH8-282 is an anthropomorphic robotic hand designed to replicate the movements and dexterity of a human hand. Equipped with multiple degrees of freedom, it allows a wide range of manipulations and grips.
Its design is lightweight and compact but has the dexterity to grasp objects of different sizes, shapes and orientations. It uses industry-standard serial communications or high-speed CANbus (including USB adapters), allowing quick and easy integration with any robotic arm, adding value to flexible automation tasks.
Main features
- 
- Improved dexterity for complex movements.
 - Versatility and compatibility with various control systems.
 - Modular design for ease of maintenance and customisation.
 - Easy integration.
 
 
Applications
- Research and Development.
 - Industrial automation.
