Constructive and Functional Modelling of a Pneumatic Muscle Actuated Symmetric Gripper System with Two Mobile Jaws

Article Preview

Abstract:

Compliance is one of the main requirements to be satisfied by a gripper system. The paper addresses this issue and proposes a compliant, pneumatic muscle actuated gripper system. Constructive and functional models of an innovative gripper system are presented, together with a discussion of its limits.
