This project focuses on developing innovative gripping technologies inspired by gecko adhesion to handle extremely small objects in automation processes. By utilizing bioinspired surfaces with switchable adhesive functions, the technology aims to improve reliability and efficiency in micro assembly applications.
Since Adam and Eve’s infamous apple, gripping, handling and releasing objects has been a thoroughly human activity: the hand and fingers combine muscular action with sensing, complemented by feedback from visual monitoring.
Modern automation technology, e.g. in production and micro assembly lines, is now facing the challenge of manipulating of extremely small objects, with dimensions typically smaller than the width of a human hair.
Existing gripping technologies are running out of steam in this…
