Year

2025

The idea

The BionicSoftHand 3.0 is an innovative further development of the BionicSoftHand presented in 2018.

The objective

The anthropomorphic robotic hand is moved exclusively by pneumatics; it exemplifies intuitive human-robot collaboration.

Technical data

Motion control: bellows structures Regulation: piezo valve technology Swivel module: various gripping positions

Function

The movements of the BionicSoftHand 3.0 are controlled by means of pneumatic bellows struc-tures in the fingers. When filled with air, they bend like the fingers of a human hand. The movements are precisely regulated by innovative piezo valve technology.

Gripping positions

The thumb and index finger are fitted with an additional swivel module, so that various different gripping options are possible depending on the position of the thumb.
