The bionically inspired ADHESO gripper technology is based on the principle of adhesion and uses intermolecularly acting Van der Waals forces to handle various workpieces. Due to the high variability of the adhesive structures, grippers with ADHESO technology can be tailored individually to different applications.

Gripping principle
The ADHESO gripper is based on the principle of dry adhesion, which is based on intermolecular forces ("Van der Waals forces"). The pillar structure shown here maximizes contact with the surface. As a result, the gripper does not require an external power supply and can reliably grip a wide range of different materials.

Gripping
To grip a workpiece, the pillar structure must be brought into direct surface contact with the workpiece surface. Subsequently, temporary dipoles then form, allowing a gripping force to be generated.
Uvolnění
Pro uvolnění obrobku musí být zvětšena vzdálenost mezi konstrukcí sloupku chapadla ADHESO a povrchem obrobku nebo snížen povrchový kontakt. To lze provést pomocí různých a přizpůsobených metod. Dočasné dipóly zmizí a uvolní se uchopovací síla.
