The servo used in this gripper is light weight but also very strong using a metal geartrain. Care must be taken to prevent the servo from being commanded to close too tightly on an object. In this case you must use just enough pressure, but no more than is needed. If the full force is attempted the servo will heat up and self destruct in a short time. </font></p></td>
