This article presents an innovative, motor-driven, three-finger compliant gripper for adaptive
grasping of size-varied delicate objects. An optimized compliant finger design is identified …

Soft grippers have attracted increasing attention due to safer and more adaptable human–
machine and environment-machine interactions. However, it has always been a challenge …

This article presents a two-finger soft-robotic gripper with enveloping grasping (EG) and
pinching grasping (PG) modes. The proposed soft-robotic gripper is based on a two-finger …

A compliant constant-force mechanism is a passive force regulation device that can
generate a nearly constant output force over a range of input or output displacements while …

Soft robotic grippers are required for power grasping of objects without inducing damage.
Additive manufacturing can be used to produce custom-made grippers for industrial robots …

Soft robots have advantages such as low weight and compact size compared to rigid robots.
Variable stiffness is one of the key methods of improving the performance of a soft robot. The …

In soft robotics, there is still a great need for a universal but simple gripper that realizes a
high level of adaptability as well as a gentle touch to a wide variety of unknown objects of …

In this paper, a novel robotic gripper design with variable stiffness is proposed and
fabricated using a modified additive manufacturing (hereafter called 3D printing) process …

This study presents the design of an underactuated, two-finger, motor-driven compliant
gripper for grasping size-varied unknown objects. The gripper module consists of one main …

This article presented a four-fingered soft bionic robotic gripper with variable effective
actuator lengths. By combining approaches of finite element analysis, quasi-static analytical …
