MultiGrip Patented Technology

MultiGrip is VersaBuilt’s patented method that uses workholding as the gripper in CNC automation. This unique system allows the robot to pick, place, and transfer parts of any geometry across multiple operations—without custom programming or regrip stations. The gripper picks jaws, uses those jaws to handle parts, and then places the jaws (with or without a part) into a CNC vise, all using quick-exchange interfaces for fast, flexible automation.
