Abstract :
In manufacturing, 3-finger and 4-finger gripper are widely used in grasping, handling and sorting. This paper addresses the problem of operating a binary 4-finger gripper to caging grasp a polyhedral object. We develop a strategy to find the available caging configuration based on the projection of the object. The dynamic grasping process to a stable grasping configuration is also analyzed and simulated based on the concept of “attractive region”.
