Thanks for your reply, here is an image of the TPU95A properties, also I don´t think it's a hyperelastic material model since I just realized nonlinear behavior is off as seen in the next image:

For my gripper, red arrows indicate where there are fixed supports. There´s also a yellow arrow that indicates a displacement in the 'x' axis.

And I increase that displacement one by one (mm) analyzing how it influences the force at the tip of the gripper, like showed in this image:

Again, thanks for your help :)
