Challenge
Each robot cell may need unique grippers for specific product geometry. Traditional fabrication requires weeks and significant machining cost.
Solution
AM-printed grippers and end-effectors from SLS nylon or carbon-filled composites are produced in days, weigh 60–80% less than machined metal equivalents, and reduce robot cycle times by lowering inertia.
Outcomes
- 0160–80% weight reduction
- 02Days vs weeks time savings
