Building the hands of next generation's robots

We build smart grippers for collaborative robots and humanoids, enabling flexible automation in smart manufacturing.

Why We Exist

The gripper is the most overlooked part of automation

A robot arm is only as capable as what's on the end of it.

Cobots and humanoids have transformed what robots can do. But most grippers were still designed around the constraints of the old world - fixed lines, single products, expert operators. The robot evolved, the gripper didn't keep up. We started Apicoo because we believed that had to change. Not with a better version of an existing design. With a new one. That's SusGrip. And that's why we exist.

What We Do

Smart Electric Gripper Series

SusGrip is our answer to a simple belief: automation should adapt. Built on our patented hybrid mechanism, the SusGrip platform brings together long stroke, precision, and flexibility for collaborative robots, humanoids, and smart manufacturing.

Customized Gripper

When the standard products cover 80% of your application but not all of it, we engineer the rest.

Custom stroke range, fingertip geometry, weight, and platform integration - same patented mechanism, your specification.

Our Journey

2025

Apicoo Robotics supplied grippers to Apple Inc., supporting advanced automation research and development.

Apicoo Robotics supplied grippers to Sumitomo Heavy Industry, Ltd. for high-mix, low-volume machine tending in industrial production.

2024

Joined the HAND ERC ecosystem - an NSF-funded center led by Northwestern University advancing robotic dexterity research.

Joined NVIDIA Inception Program to accelerate AI development for smarter gripper technology.

Selected for Samsung's accelerator program, gaining access to advanced robotics systems for R&D.

2023
