Soft Robotics today proclaimed the production of mGrip, the
company's first on-demand, modular automation system. mGrip will enable the
quick proliferation of soft robotics, and allow users everywhere to improve the
company's patented, award-winning technology to build, validate and install
production-ready systems in minutes.
Each kit goes equipped with the components required to build
tools with limitless designs and spacing options, solving even the most
impossible picking challenges. Since its inception, Soft Robotics' technology
has converted manufacturing for industries that have been excluded from
implementing automation due to the limitations of conventional robotic
technologies. The company's revolutionary gripping system has been validated in
the most demanding production environments with customers around the world.
Soft Robotics models and builds soft robotic automation
systems that can grasp and manipulate items with human hand-like dexterity.
Using patented material science, Soft Robotics unlocks automation for great
important markets and labor-starved markets such as food and beverage, complex
manufacturing, and e-commerce. The company's resilient, factory-validated
gripping platform is in production with international customers that include
one of the world's largest pizza retailers, a Fortune 500 consumer products
company, and Just Born Quality Confections (maker of PEEPS®).
"Our customers have questioned for the potential to promptly build and deploy our disruptive technology, and we have supplied with mGrip," said Carl Vause, Soft Robotics' CEO. "As consumers spot increasing value on choice, control and convenience, manufacturers are looking for solutions that can enhance shorter lead times, accelerate new production introductions and simplify the manufacturing of customized products. With just one mGrip kit, you can automate an endless set of applications."
