Abstract: This study proposes an integration of the weight method and grey relational analysis to optimize a monolithic gripper. This gripper is desired for use in the assembling industry of cylindrical parts with diameters from 500 µm to 800 µm. The weight factor for each response is calculated accurately. Response surface methodology and Taguchi method are utilized to build an experiment matrix, and grey relational analysis is utilized to predict optimal results. The results found that the predicted displacement value is 0.5699 µm, and the predicted frequency value is 780.9 Hz. Compared to the initial design, the quality of responses is improved by 7.53% for the natural frequency and 35.29% for the output displacement. The error between the predicted result and the verified result is 1.15% for the natural frequency and 16.62% for the output displacement, respectively. It implies that the proposed method has a statistical accuracy.
