Grasp the possibilities
the problem
Automating unstructured environments presents a number of challenges. Conventional robotic grippers struggle to handle items that are delicate and of varying size, shape and weight.
$27 Billion Fresh-Cut Fruit and Vegetable Market
$9 Billion Losses Due to Labor Shortages
65% of Distribution Center Labor Focused on Picking
the solution
We design and build soft robotic grippers and control systems that can manipulate items of varying size, shape and weight with a single device.
Wide Range of Addressable Objects
Turn Key Integration
Enables high speed pick and precision place
Made of FDA compatible materials for primary food handling applications
“Perhaps more than any other element of robotic development in warehousing and distribution, the end-of-arm tooling, or gripper, is the place that can make or break a robot’s success.”
