Topology-optimized, additively manufacturable robotic end effector for increased productivity Using computer aided design, topology optimization, finite element analysis and additive manufacturing, we will have an end effector design with a reduction of mass and part count over the original design. This should result in increased reliability due to the lower part count and ease of… Continue reading Gripper

Topology optimization and FEA
Topology optimization takes a series of steps from original shape to optimized result. Either in Altair inspire or Autodesk Fusion 360, the programs have a very straightforward workflow already laid out as a linear progression … We want to minimize mass while maintaining stiffness. In this case we must take into consideration all features that must… Continue reading Topology optimization and FEA
