On-Demand, Modular Soft Robotic Kit

Soft Robotics has released its mGrip, the company's first on-demand, modular automation system. mGrip is designed to enable the rapid proliferation of soft robotics, and allows users to leverage the technology to build, validate and install production-ready systems in minutes, according to the company.

"Each kit comes equipped with the components needed to build tools with limitless configurations and spacing options, solving even the most impossible picking challenges. Since its inception, Soft Robotics' technology has transformed manufacturing for industries that have been excluded from deploying automation due to the limitations of conventional robotic technologies," said a company spokesperson. "The company's revolutionary gripping system has been validated in the most demanding production environments with customers around the world."

Soft Robotics designs and builds soft robotic automation systems that can grasp and manipulate items with human hand-like dexterity. "Leveraging patented material science, Soft Robotics unlocks automation for large meaningful markets and labor-starved industries such as food and beverage, advanced manufacturing and e-commerce," said the spokesperson.

"Our customers have asked for the ability to quickly build and deploy our disruptive technology, and we have delivered with mGrip," said Carl Vause, Soft Robotics CEO. "As consumers place increasing value on choice, control and convenience, manufacturers are looking for solutions that can facilitate shorter lead times, accelerate new production introductions and simplify the manufacturing of customized products. With just one mGrip kit, you can automate an endless set of applications."
