About
Corinna Kramp is a researcher at the forefront of bioinspired soft robotics, specializing in the design and fabrication of pneumatic actuators for adaptive gripper systems. Her work bridges the gap between advanced manufacturing and biomimetic engineering, focusing on how 3D printing technologies can be optimized to create flexible, functional robotic components. In her highly cited 2022 study, Kramp conducted a rigorous application-oriented comparison of two distinct 3D printing processes—fused deposition modeling and selective laser sintering—for manufacturing pneumatic bending actuators. This work provided critical insights into material selection, print resolution, and mechanical performance, directly enabling more reliable and efficient production of soft grippers that mimic the dexterity of biological hands. By systematically evaluating these fabrication methods, Kramp has helped establish practical guidelines for engineers seeking to scale soft robotic systems from lab prototypes to real-world applications. Her contributions are particularly significant for industries requiring gentle yet precise object manipulation, such as food handling and medical devices. With growing citation impact, Kramp’s research continues to shape the future of additive manufacturing in robotics, offering a clear pathway toward more robust, bioinspired machines.
