Best Answer

The end effector is the device at the end of a robotic arm that is used to do some useful work and is capable of carrying out instructions. They take the form which is the most suitable for its task. A tool of some kind will be required if its functions include cutting, welding, drilling, etc. A gripper will be used if it needs to hold or move an object or just controlling an operation. A switch is used in those that aim to connect, disconnect or redirect a current.
