Design and Development of Compliant Robotic Gripper by 3D-Printing Technology

Microgripper is an important device in micro-operating system. It can convert other types of energy into any type of energy and create a clamping force with the required clamping force, making it widely used in the manufacturing and assembly of electronics, biomedicine, and optics. The performance of the microclamp depends on its electrical characteristics, driving conditions, process structure, etc. In this project, we use 3D-printing technology to develop a compliant gripper for micro-object manipulation. We studied different types of 3D-printing materials. We also studied Pro-series software for mathematical and structural designing and simulation for redesigning. The resulting design of the gripper can be done by using TPU plastic.
