I will share the STEP model of a commercial parallel-jaw gripper. Your task is to build on that base in SOLIDWORKS and return a fully‐featured assembly that I can drop straight into my robot cell. Micro fingers • Geometry must let the jaws pick up a range of part sizes while remaining gentle enough for fragile components. • Target material is aluminum; please keep wall thicknesses and radii manufacturable on a small CNC mill or printer with aluminum capability. • A light elastomer insert or surface texturing for the “soft-touch” requirement is welcome if it can be modeled parametrically. Mounting bracket adapter The bracket bolts to the gripper’s vertical arm (exact bolt pattern provided with the STEP file). Stay inside the envelope I will specify so the gripper stroke is unhindered. All mating features—holes, counterbores, clearances—must be fully defined. Assembly & files Return one SOLIDWORKS assembly (.sldasm) that shows the commercial base, your bracket, and both finger halves in their home and fully closed positions. Include native part files, any reference sketches, and a generic STEP of your finished design so I can share it with vendors. Acceptance • No interferences in SOLIDWORKS Interference Detection • Fingers close symmetrically and remain flush on the mounting faces • Fasteners line up with the provided bolt pattern • All parts rebuild cleanly with no suppressed features If you usually work in a later SOLIDWORKS version, let me know so we can agree on the save-back format before you begin.

Hi there, I went through your project carefully, and the core challenge is clear: designing a custom micro gripper that can handle various part sizes gently while ensuring manufacturability. This isn’t a surface-level task , it needs someone who understands CAD modeling intricacies and can execute without hand-holding. I’ve handled similar work where precision, speed, and clean execution mattered. My approach is straightforward: I’ll use SOLIDWORKS to integrate your existing gripper model with optimized finger geometry, ensuring all specified parameters are met. I’ll include all required features, maintain a clean assembly, and ensure no interferences exist. If this aligns, I can start immediately and deliver a complete assembly in [insert timeframe]. One quick question before I proceed: do you have a specific aluminum type for the fingers in mind? Best regards, Muskan
