# Industrial Specification: Gripper Mechanism

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical component designed to securely grasp, hold, and release vibration motors during automated insertion processes.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.5 N gripping force, 0.1-0.5 mm positional accuracy, 0-60°C ambient temperature**. Failure boundary: **Gripping force below 0.3 N causes motor slippage; positional error exceeding 0.6 mm leads to misalignment; temperature above 70°C degrades polymer compliance**, Mechanism: **Frictional coefficient reduction at low forces (μ&lt;0.15); thermal expansion mismatch between aluminum jaws and polymer inserts (Δα=23×10⁻⁶/°C); fatigue crack propagation in jaw flexures at &gt;10⁶ cycles**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Pneumatic pressure drop below 3.5 bar due to regulator drift | 8 | Insufficient gripping force causing motor ejection during insertion | Dual redundant pressure sensors with 2.8 bar cutoff interlock |
| Accumulated wear debris exceeding 0.05 mm thickness on jaw surfaces | 8 | Increased positional error causing misalignment with insertion fixture | Hard-coated tungsten carbide jaw inserts with 1200 HV hardness |

## 3. Key Technical Parameters
