Robot that can self-evolve and 3D print its own tools

A robotics project uses evolutionary search and AI-generated CAD in simulation to let a robot iteratively design and test tools such as grippers to improve task performance; the robot's motions still come from a predefined task controller. The next step is to validate on real hardware using an Arctos robot and a 3D printer, and the author is seeking suggestions for automatically removing gripper fingers from the print bed.
