Self‐Closing and Self‐Healing Multi‐Material Suction Cups for Energy‐Efficient Vacuum Grippers

Zhanwei Wang,
Seppe Terryn,
Huijiang Wang
et al.

Abstract: While vacuum grippers offer an economical solution, the environmental impact of energy waste through their suction cups (SCs) cannot be overlooked. This waste stems from three key factors: i) air losses from idle SCs arranged in arrays, ii) inadequate sealing on target surfaces leading to air leaks, and iii) damage from sharp objects resulting in leaking perforations. To overcome these challenges, in this article, a comprehensive approach is presented that involves the development of a i) self‐closing, ii) mul… Show more
