A 3D-printed-layered structure for forming the compliant bipolar electrostatic gripper is proposed. A prototype gripper module, which consists of an array of elastically deformable bipolar micro-probes, is fabricated using a conventional 3D printer. Experiments are conducted to examine the attractive force and the pick-and-place performance of the prototype. Experimental results show that the prototype module can generate the maximum attractive pressure of 87.1 Pa, which can pick and hold a piece of xerographic paper of 31.2 mg successfully. The effects of residual charges and the probe-tips flattening process on the attractive force are also discussed.
