The new requirements for such grip units, particularly in the part of their mechanical design, require to find new principles of biomechanism applications or looking for new solutions in principle. A multi-unit biomechanical unit for gripping objects and upgrading the gripper unit has been developed. The solution is a whole unit of gripper and a 3D model with simulations. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajme/5/6/18/ajme-5-6-18.pdf anthropomorphic unit gripper 3D model
