Key benefits

  • Dexterous 4-finger kinematics: 3 fingers + thumb with 16 independently controlled joints.
  • Torque (current) control: supports compliant grasps and modern manipulation control strategies.
  • 360° tactile sensing at the fingertips: pressure-aware manipulation for rigid and deformable objects.
  • Real-time CAN interface: listed control/communication frequency 500 Hz.
  • High payload rating: up to 15 kg (measurement-method dependent).
Fingers4 (incl. thumb)
Active DoF16
CommsCAN (500 Hz)
Power24 V / 120 W

Payload and achievable performance depend on grasp type, object geometry, friction, and test method. Validate for your specific application.

Fingertip Pressure Sensor (360° tactile sensing)

  • 360° omnidirectional pneumatic tactile sensing designed to detect pressure at the fingertips.
  • Air pressure measurement using a capacitive pressure sensor.
  • Human-finger-like stiffness for natural contact behavior.
  • Color changes based on tactile sensitivity (visual feedback).
  • Pressure range (listed): up to ~24,000 Pa (with bands shown in documentation).

Fingertip types

Type Purpose / characteristics
Type A (Default) Internal support structure under silicone surface for a firm, stable grip.
Type B External support structure; suited for delicate object gripping.
Type C Shorter sensor; sensing concentrated near the top for stronger, more precise gripping.
Type D Wide back support structure for strong lateral gripping.

Fingertip options may be configurable depending on supplier package.

Software & workflow (typical)

  • Near real-time visualization in RViz2
  • Custom pose storage and execution with MoveIt 2
  • Convenient control via a GUI (pose generation + motion control)

Scope of delivery (typical kit)

  • Allegro Hand V5 Plus
  • Control and communication modules
  • Power supply
  • Cable set
  • Software and documentation
  • Mechanical accessories

Contents can vary by supplier and package—confirm exact scope before ordering.

FAQ

What is the main advantage of the V5 Plus (4F) vs. a 3-finger hand?

The additional finger and higher DoF enable more stable grasps and richer in-hand manipulation, especially when combined with tactile feedback.

Is this suitable for real-time research control?

Yes—CAN communication is listed with a 500 Hz frequency, supporting real-time manipulation workflows.

How do I choose the fingertip type?

Choose based on your target objects: Type B for fragile items, Type D for lateral grips, Type C for stronger top-focused contact, and Type A as the general-purpose default.
