Flexible Gripper
Source: Thingiverse by PrintChallenge
The Flexible Gripper is a free printable 3D model from Thingiverse by PrintChallenge. The gripper beaks can take the shape of the object they hold, like in this case an orange! Printing it is pretty self explanatory, or watch the short: 3D Printed Flexible Gripper. You can download the STL file from the original listing below and print it at home.
About this model
The gripper beaks can take the shape of the object they hold, like in this case an orange! Printing it is pretty self explanatory, or watch the short: 3D Printed Flexible Gripper edit: Just to clarify this is not a remix of even though I will admid it is very similar! But I started this project just trying to print something I saw from festo and very quickly realized I had to create little hinges or it would not work. EDIT 23/02/2023: added clamps with a texture for extra grip
