Each high aspect ratio tube foot contained a single encapsulated magnet within the domed tip to facilitate robust, long-term, zero-energy adhesion to ferrous substrates. Stabilizing the magnet within the center of the volume during elastomer encapsulation, while preventing the magnet from pulling out of the silicone material during actuation and adhesion presented a challenge [19]. To address both issues, thin metal wire meshes (RadioScreenTM, Less EMF Inc., Latham, NY, USA) were laser-cut into a star-like geometry and placed around each magnet during the molding process. The wire mesh allowed the silicone to flow around the magnet and subsequently acted as a barrier to prevent the magnet from ripping through the surrounding elastomer. To align the magnet within the encapsulation volume, an additional magnet was placed within the exterior of the mold such that the encapsulated magnet maintained a stable geometry during the molding process.
