摘要:
Systems and methods for controlling staple firing include an end effector including a first jaw and a second jaw holding staples, a drive system configured to apply a force or torque to cause staple firing to occur, and a processor. The processor is configured to monitor the applied force or torque and control application of the force or torque by the drive system based on a comparison of the applied force or torque to an acceptable range of force or torque. In some embodiments, the processor is further configured to determine one or more of a position of the first jaw and the second jaw or a displacement of the drive system and control application of the force or torque by the drive system based on one or more of the position of the first jaw and the second jaw or the displacement of the drive system.
