dc.description.abstractIn endosurgery, tissue manipulation is performed by long graspers, which have poor force-reflection property, i.e. they do not reflect the grasping force to the hand of the surgeon and there exists the possibility to damage delicate tissues. Before this, research had been done in order to deal with the above problem using the application of a tunable spring. And it has reduced the output force to 70% from the previous value. However, the handle and the tunable spring are two separate things. Thus, this paper is concerned on how to combine the grasper and the tunable spring into a new compliant mechanism. Analysed using pseudo rigid body method and in same time it is designed and analysed using IDEAS software. Both results are then compared to the previous data for further improvement if it is necessary.
