摘要
In this letter, we present a novel gripper, whose design was inspired by chuck clamping devices, for transferring heavy objects and assembling parts precisely in industrial applications. The developed gripper is lightweight (0.9 kg), can manipulate heavy payloads (over 23 kgf), and can automatically align its position and posture via a grasping motion. A fingertip design criterion is presented for the position alignment, while a control strategy is presented for the posture alignment. With one actuator, this gripper realized the above features. This letter describes the mathematical analyses and experiments used to validate these key metrics. © 2016 IEEE.
