Microgrippers

Microgrippers is a class of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) actuators that utilize piezoelectric actuation to enable precise, controllable manipulation of microscale objects, distinguished by their miniaturized gripping mechanisms designed for targeted interaction in applications such as biomedical engineering and micro-assembly.
