“…This works by thermally melting the resin in the carbon fiber sheet to achieve a solid bond. Improvements since then have lowered bonding time to less than one second [112]. This is compared to chemical curing which can take over ten seconds.…”

Abstract:In this paper, we present a recent survey on robotic grippers. In many cases, modern grippers outperform their older counterparts which are now stronger, more repeatable, and faster. Technological advancements have also attributed to the development of gripping various objects. This includes soft fabrics, microelectromechanical systems, and synthetic sheets. In addition, newer materials are being used to improve functionality of grippers, which include piezoelectric, shape memory alloys, smart fluids, carbon fiber, and many more. This paper covers the very first robotic gripper to the newest developments in grasping methods. Unlike other survey papers, we focus on the applications of robotic grippers in industrial, medical, for fragile objects and soft fabrics grippers. We report on new advancements on grasping mechanisms and discuss their behavior for different purposes. Finally, we present the future trends of grippers in terms of flexibility and performance and their vital applications in emerging areas of robotic surgery, industrial assembly, space exploration, and micromanipulation. These advancements will provide a future outlook on the new trends in robotic grippers.

In the present study, we used tensile shear tests, Shore hardness tests, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetry (TGA) to characterize a reactive polyurethane-based hot melt adhesive. We also measured contact angles at various temperatures to evaluate the wettability of the adhesive and to determine the optimum temperature range for applications. The adhesive was tested following curing for various times, and the bonding of the adhesive with several materials was investigated to determine whether it has the potential for greater versatility of application. Therefore, we explored new uses of the adhesive, such as in the matrix of a composite with fiberglass. Reactive hot melt adhesives are useful because they provide a certain degree of flexibility to joints, and have high processing speeds, high initial rigidity, and high working temperatures.
