Design of Highly Repeatable and Multi-Functional Grippers for Precision Handling with Articulated Robots

Philip Gümbel,Klaus Dröder,Philip Gümbel,Klaus Dröder

This paper presents a novel approach to designing, a low-cost gripper that is highly repeatable and functionally integrated. The gripper is optimized to compensate for gripping errors with particular consideration to potential challenges of articulated robots. The primary design goal is to achieve maximum repeatability during the gripping and releasing stages of a pick-and-place process for a chip...
