14 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The invention is a flexible gripper for indus- trial robots and the like through the use of articulated ball joint linkages and an industrial brake. The gripper can orient itself to an object and adapt to irregular surfaces while engaging the object. In other words, the gripper matches the orientation of the grasped part. With the object so engaged, the gripper is locked rigidly so that the orientation of the part is preserved as it is manipulated by the flexible gripper and its associated robot.
