It is a little hard to make out the gripper against the background of the blue bumpers. I don't make out any rollers. Best I can tell it is a pinch mechanism with one side of the pinchers inserted into the center of the tube.
Yea we have 4 cim for the drive and then modified the arm motor but are going to change it with another motor.......yea and the arm is a pinch mechanism
