About

About Graspian

Graspian was founded to add a usable sense of touch to industrial robot gripping. Its tools measure contact and gripping forces at the fingers, supporting objects that are fragile, deformable or not positioned precisely enough for fixed-force handling.

The portfolio includes an intelligent tactile gripper, a parallel gripper and application-specific tooling. Its differentiation sits in the end effector and sensing-control package, not in a complete robot arm.
