MSG Compliant AI Gripper

MSG Compliant AI Gripper

MSG Gripper is in Beta Stage Now!!!!

The MSG compliant AI stepper gripper is built around StepFOC stepper drivers, which enable precise FOC-based force control on standard stepper motors. This makes it well-suited for assembly tasks, human-robot collaboration, and AI data collection applications — including embodied AI, teleoperation, and VLA training — thanks to its camera-friendly design.

The gripper is modular in two key ways:

Option Variants Notes
Rail length 100 mm, 150 mm, 200 mm Determines maximum grip span
Stepper length 21.5 mm, 40 mm, 60 mm Determines maximum grip force output

All mechanical files, firmware, and software are open source, allowing you to attach a custom gripping tool and integrate the gripper with any robotic arm or platform.

⚒️How to build / Where to buy?

You can buy MSG gripper on our website: https://source-robotics.com/products/msg-gripper

If you want to Source all the parts yourself and build your own follow these steps:

Print files from the STEP files folder based on your chosen configuration:

Rail Size Folders to Print
100 mm Common parts + Linear rail dependant parts/100mm rail + Stepper dependant parts/<your stepper size>
150 mm Common parts + Linear rail dependant parts/150mm rail + Stepper dependant parts/<your stepper size>
200 mm Common parts + Linear rail dependant parts/200mm rail + Stepper dependant parts/<your stepper size>
