Key facts

Analysis of existing actuation solutions and their geometric and functional adaptation for a new finger design
Development of a CAD model for a robot finger to combine rigid and flexible elements
Development of integration methods for proprioceptive sensors directly in the finger structure
Construction of functional prototypes using additive manufacturing processes to verify the design
Planning and execution of test series to measure precision, robustness and sensor feedback

very good CAD skills in Creo or comparable development software
sound understanding of technical mechanics for the design of moving limbs
confident handling of MATLAB or Simulink for evaluation of sensor data and system behaviour
practical knowledge in modern manufacturing technology and mechanical integration of electronics
experience in working with mechatronic test benches and their commissioning

DLR stands for diversity, appreciation and equal opportunities for all people. We promote independent work and the individual development of our employees in their personal and professional environment. For this purpose, our numerous further training opportunities are available to you. Equal opportunities are a particular concern for us; we therefore want to increase the proportion of women in science and management in particular. Applications from severely disabled people are given preference in case of professional suitability.
