On October 21, 2026, Robotiq introduced the 2FC physical AI gripper, an adaptive gripper designed for production use. This innovative product features tactile sensing and embedded intelligence, allowing robots to learn from physical interactions and apply that knowledge effectively in various environments, from laboratories to production lines.
The launch of the 2FC gripper is significant as it enables physical AI teams to train and deploy their systems on the same hardware, streamlining the development process. This capability is crucial for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of robotic operations, making it a valuable addition to the robotics industry.
Pre-orders for the 2FC gripper are now open, with shipping expected to commence in the first quarter of 2027. Industry professionals should monitor the adoption of this technology as it could influence future developments in robotic applications and AI integration.
