The objective of this project was to design and model a robotic gripper using an off-the-shelf servo motor. The purpose of the project was to practice part design and product assembly within SolidWorks.
The robotic gripper is comprised of an attachment base, or a "palm", on which all other parts attach to. The servo slides into a slot in the base and is fastened with standard sized machine screws. One geared linkage is attached directly to the servo, which then connects to the gripping finger. A second geared linkage meshes with the first to complete the grip. A clear plastic casing covers the gears to protect from debris and ensure safety, and is fastened with standard sized screws.
