Abstract: A robot gripper is one of the technologies commonly used to grip an object. Gripper has an arm shape that is adjusted to its function. Gripper with a circular shape that functions to grip the workpiece, but the design of this jaw gripper is still not optimal because it still uses too much material. This research aims to improve the existing jaw gripper design to be more optimal in using materials and costs incurred. In addition, after making design improvements, then conduct a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) based simulation to determine the strength of the design when stressed and also conduct an analysis using Markforged software to find out the difference in part details such as the time required to print, the use of materials and the estimated material costs incurred. The results of the stress analysis simulation Von Mises stress of 13.34 Mpa, Von Mises stress that occurs is categorized as safe because it is below the Yield Strength of 254.1 Mpa. In contrast, the displacement result is 0.014 mm, while the minimum safety factor is 15.
