Machines tend to use powerful actuators and large gearboxes to bear large loads, which are inconvenient in terms of responsiveness as they affect the duration of operations. Thus, to compensate the force to grasp an object, we propose a clamping mechanism implementing the internally-balanced magnetic unit (IB Magnet) as a force amplifier, which is a mechanism able to switch attached and detached s...
