I am a college junior, I just don't know what to do for bended links like the gripper finger. This is a general free body diagram I made to simplify things these are not the exact values that apply to my gripper, but if I could figure out how to solve this I could figure it out for the gripper...
The problem also is that if I were to solve this as a link system or something the finger part of the gripper is a bent link so I don’t know how to account for that
the gripper isnt lifting against gravity directly, it produces a force on the object which generates static friction which resists gravity, i thought you could solve it like a four link system, but i dont know how to do that, could you help me with what a fbd would look like, obviously it would...
