About

About DH11

PUDU DH11 is a 500 g, five-finger dexterous hand with six active and five passive degrees of freedom. Twelve tactile regions containing 1,018 sensor pixels provide contact feedback, while the cable-driven underactuated mechanism supports compliant grasping, pinching, twisting, pulling, pushing, pressing and lifting.

PUDU publishes the DH11 as an exact end-effector used on its D9 humanoid and FlashBot Arm semi-humanoid service robot. The current D9 specification lists 30 N maximum palm-finger grip force, 40 kg maximum lifting load, 150°/s finger bending and 191°/s thumb bending.
