Abstract

The automation of assembly processes has found in soft robotics a disruptive technological alternative to the limitations of traditional robots, which are ineffective in tasks that require adaptability, delicate handling or safe interaction with humans. This article presents a systematic review of scientific literature between 2010 and 2024, using databases such as Scopus and Web of Science, with the aim of analyzing the state of the art, applications, limitations and potential of soft robotics in automated assembly processes. Four main principles are identified: use of elastomers, pneumatic or hydraulic actuation, adaptability to unstructured environments and nonlinear dynamic control. Notable applications include electronic component assembly, collaborative robotics, sensitive food handling, and medical device assembly. The findings evidence significant improvement in accuracy, safety and efficiency, especially in contexts that demand high sensitivity and customization. However, technical challenges related to modeling, sensory integration and standardization remain. It is concluded that soft robotics has a high potential to redefine industrial automation in the Industry 4.0 era, provided that its integration with emerging technologies is consolidated.
