Design of Three Fingered Robot-Gripper Mechanism

The aim of this paper is to study the challenges and to design a three fingered robot mechanism which has the potential to fulfill various demand in industry and factories. So far there are so many mechanisms available for robot gripper in three fingered robot gripper mechanism is a type of mechanism which is used in industrial robots for moving object, which has higher gripper ratio. The kinematic system has been designed for one degree of freedom and the kinematic design of robot structure is developed using SAM mechanism soft ware. The gripper modeling has been designed using Pro-E Wildfire5.0 software and a three finger gripper is fabricated by aluminium material for 5 kg payload. The gripper mechanism has three fingers which are used to hold the object in a balanced way to meet the challenges faced on the industrial life. The fingers are also provided with senses to identify the type of object.
