ABSTRACT:
A gripping system for gripping a wire extending from a circuit board has a pair of claws provided at the end of a robot arm and a sensor for detecting a free end of the wire. A control is provided so that the robot arm is first moved so as to make the claws hold the fixed end of the wire, and then moved so as to allow the claws to slidingly move upwardly along the wire until the sensor detects the free end.
