Abstract: A Shape Memory Alloy based Spring Actuated Gripper (SMASAG) has been designed and developed for Minimally Invasive Surgeries. Further, the research is consist of design and development of an SMA spring and actuator force characterization by a developed testing apparatus. The gripping motion is achieved by a compact mechanism.
