Capio Robotics

Soft on food.
Strong on performance.

Adaptive soft-gripping technology for delicate fresh-food handling.

The adaptive manipulation layer for fresh-food automation.

Capio Robotics combines modular soft grippers, contact sensing and 3D vision to handle delicate, irregular and wet fresh produce.

Soft grippers. Strong results.

The challenge

Fresh produce does not behave like a standard industrial part.

Natural variations in size, shape, ripeness and surface condition make fresh-food automation challenging. Rigid grippers can damage delicate products, while suction may be unreliable on wet, porous or irregular surfaces.

Product quality and waste — Poorly distributed contact forces can cause bruising, marks and hidden damage.
Natural product variability — Every product differs in geometry, consistency and orientation.
Labour and line flexibility — Manual handling is difficult to scale, while conventional automation often requires product-specific retuning.

Our solution

Soft manipulation that sees, feels and adapts.

Capio combines compliant gripping, visual perception and contact feedback to adapt handling to the product and the task.

Modular soft grippers

Compliant fingers conform to different product shapes while distributing contact pressure.
Sensor-enabled handling

Contact and deformation feedback supports controlled and repeatable handling.
3D Vision

Visual perception identifies product position and orientation for automated picking.
