4-Bar Linkage Gripper

Home : Products : MapleSim : Model Gallery : 4-Bar Linkage Gripper

A model of a 2 DOF gripper, which utilizes two pairs of 4-bar linkage mechanisms, is built using the MapleSim CAD Toolbox to import the CAD assembly created in SolidWorks. This gripper is driven by rotational and translational position drivers from the 1-D Motion Generation app.
