Micro-robots used in control of automatic drilling operations

摘要

A micro-assembly station based on a micro-robot, under an optical microscope, is one of the typical styles to practical application of the task of assembling simple micro parts, even if they are still almost at the start phase. The performance of the micro-robotic system has the potential to have an important role in such applications with reference to the transportation, handling and storage of micro objects. For that, has developed an automated system consisting of multiple drilling micro-robots. In this paper is presented a concept of control for automated micro-drilling, "cluster" type, in which several miniature robots, piezoelectric trained, are used to transport the piece of work to hold and to permit the micro-borer introduction. This type may provide some advantages having in view the accuracy and flexibility of micro fabrication.
