To address this problem, a new type of surgical forceps with a force-holding function was developed to replace traditional forceps, which was studied in terms of structural design, statics, and dynamics. The overall structure of the surgical forceps was designed based on the lever principle, the kinematic model of the clamping part of the surgical forceps was established by the geometrical method, and the correctness of the kinematic model was verified by ADAMS. To address the clamping accuracy of the surgical forceps, a stress analysis was performed, its dynamics model was established, a finite element simulation was performed, the modal of the forceps was optimized using the Box\u2013Behnken method, and, finally, an experimental platform was built to perform the accuracy test. The results demonstrate that the designed surgical forceps exhibit high clamping accuracy and fulfill the design specifications for surgical operations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s24185895","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,11]],"date-time":"2024-09-11T07:59:46Z","timestamp":1726041586000},"page":"5895","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Design and Analysis of a Hand-Held Surgical Forceps with a Force-Holding Function"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-8512-5308","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yang","family":"Bai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"Chinese Academy of Sciences Key Laboratory of On-Orbit Manufacturing and Integration for Space Optics System, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yang","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"Chinese Academy of Sciences Key Laboratory of On-Orbit Manufacturing and Integration for Space Optics System, Changchun 130033, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4120-2448","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhenbang","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"Chinese Academy of Sciences Key Laboratory of On-Orbit Manufacturing and Integration for Space Optics System, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Hou, C., Geng, J., Sun, Y., Chen, T., Wang, F., Ren, H., Zuo, X., Li, Y., Liu, H., and Sun, L.
