Gripping technology for automated microassembly

There is a high requirement for research for the growing demand in micro-assembly technology, especially in the area of gripping technology. By observing the specific requirements of the micro-world, a spectrum of different grippers will be developed. By the experimental examination of the prototypes, an evaluation of the potentials of utilization of the different gripping principles is carried out. Thus, in particular grippers adjusted to micro-assembly requirements working according to conventional principles of efficiency show promising results.
