Avoid penetration between two different components

      Good morning everyone, I try to prevent compenetration between the green component and the orange one: 

      The green components is in ABS, and the plate is in steel, so the stiffness is different. I try also to change the plate's stiffness behavior in rigid.

      Between the surface I insert two different frictional (I try also frictionless but the result is the same) contacts with Normal Lagrange formulation and I refine the mesh on the contact side (green component) but the final result it's as if the gripper is not affected by the orange plate.

      I try also to increase the time substeps, and I add the large deflection mode.

      How can I to prevent this compenetration?
