soft grippers
Soft grippers are robotic devices designed to handle delicate or irregularly shaped objects without causing damage. Unlike traditional rigid grippers, they are made from flexible materials that can conform to the shape of the item being grasped. This adaptability makes them ideal for tasks in industries such as food handling, electronics assembly, and medical applications.
These grippers often use mechanisms like suction or soft actuators to create a gentle yet secure grip. Their design allows for safer interactions with fragile items, such as fruits or glassware, enhancing efficiency in automation and reducing the risk of breakage during handling.
