ABSTRACT:
A single purpose robot arm end effector having a ring shaped frame positioned around the periphery thereof with a plurality of extendable drivers mounted in the frame for movement between a nonfunctioning position and an operative position. Each of said drivers can be tooled up for unique or dedicated applications so that the arm will be performing many different functions during most of a manufacturing cycle, instead of only performing one function for a short period of time during the manufacturing cycle.
