Automatic Gripper-Finger Design, Production, and Application: Toward Fast and Cost-Effective Small-Batch Production
Tactile robot-based assembly line adaptation of new products is still limited by the manual redesign, manufacturing, and exchange of the end-effector setup since the gripper fingers must often be adapted to the geometry of the product components to ensure a successful assembly process. In this article we present an automatic finger design, production, and evaluation pipeline, … [Read more...] about Automatic Gripper-Finger Design, Production, and Application: Toward Fast and Cost-Effective Small-Batch Production
