CONTACT TYPE
DESIGN OF GRIPPER
Two approach have been used to arrive at the two different types of grippers.
1) Intuitive design approach 2) Topology optimization approach
INTUITIVE DESIGN
The initial design was conceived intuitively. Finite element model created and checked in
MATLAB. Gripper was modeled in Solid Works. Stress concentration and deformation patterns
were analyzed in COMSOL MultiPhysics, For analysis purposes, one of the gripper jaws was
considered fixed to calculate the overall jaw displacement. After several iterations, an improved gripper design was selected on the basis of
-Mechanical efficiency -Stiffness of mechanism -Stress concentration.
TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZED GRIPPER DESIGN
The statement of the topology optimization is-
Where,
MSE :- Mutual strain energy numerically equal to the output displacement
SE :- Strain energy which is measure of stiffness
K :- Stiffness matrix of the FEM
U,V :- Displacements for actual loading
F :- Actual applied load
Fd :- Unit dummy load
Ai :- Areas of cross-section of frame elements
V* :- Allowed volume of material to be used
MESOSCALE PROTOTYPING OF THE GRIPPERS
Wire Cut EDM
Photolithography
Vacuum Casting For PDMS
W-EDM METHOD
The material used for manufacturing by w-edm was spring steel.
The dimension of the gripper to be manufactured was 11mm x 11mm x 0.5mm
It was possible to achieve dimensional tolerance of ±20 μm.
PHOTOLITHOGRAPHY METHOD
This technique was used to manufacture thick gripper.
The process involves following steps: 1) It involves use of two conjugate dry film
photo masks; a spring steel sheet. 2) Spring steel sheet is coated with
photoresist. 3) Sheet is placed between the masks to get
UV exposure on both sides. 4) Both sides are etched simultaneously to
decrease the undercut
FABRICATION USING VACUUM CASTING-
This method we use polydimethylxsiloxane (PDMS) as the gripper material because of certain advantages
Steps involved under this method are as follows: 1) The molds were cut out of 2mm thick spring
steel sheet using w-edm method. 2) Molds were properly attached on the substrate. 3) PDMS gel and 10% binder mixed and poured in
the molds after degassing in a vacuum chain. 4) PDMS was cured in an oven at 100 EC for 6-7
hours. 5) Minimum 2mm thickness kept to avoid self
weight sagging of gripper.
MICROMANIPULATION
Micromanipulation Setup - It includes an inverted microscope of
Olympus and two XYZ stages. - Two rigid metal tubes were used to
suspend the gripper. - The movement of tubes was controlled
using a joystick. Experiments The experiments were conducted on various
biological entities and several motions such as roll, stretch, move, pick etc were performed.
Spherical zebra fish egg cell (0.7mm dia).
Ellipsoidal drosophila embryos (0.2mm wide and 0.5mm long).
Yeast ball (dia< 1mm).
Hibiscus pollen (0.1mm dia).
FORCE SENSING VALIDATION
The basis for the criterion is the sensitivity matrix of the estimated forces with respect to measured displacements. In order to get the correct sensitivity matrix, spurious forces have to be suppressed.
To avoid extensive computation, forces were applied in a sequence at desired locations (labeled as locations B)
A set of displacement vectors at measured locations (labeled these locations M).
When force sensing was done on zebra fish egg cell similar points were taken and various forces were computed using the CCD camera.
Computed forces on zebra fish egg cell-
CONCLUSION
Grippers presented can grasp and manipulate biological objects smaller than 1 mm in diameter and immersed in aqueous medium.
Two variants were designed intuitively, while the second type was designed using topology optimization.
The experimental setup and how we grasped and manipulated zebra fish egg cells, drosophila embryos, yeast balls, and grains of pollen have been described.
Forces applied were estimated.
