Microgrippers realized by LIGA techniques
Proceedings 1995 INRIA/IEEE Symposium on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation. ETFA'95, 2002Development of new methods and techniques derived from microelectronics technology and devoted to the fabrication of small mechanical objects has yield the realization of micromechanical devices for actuating or sensing operations. However, among the devices built using these techniques, microgrippers have not received a great deal of interest. Most of

A self-centering electrostatic microgripper
Journal of Manufacturing Systems, 2008Abstract Automated microassembly of micro hybrid devices is one fundamental step to reduce their high cost. Often, microassembly deals with fragile and wear-sensitive microparts that must be accurately grasped, positioned, and released or fastened in stable positions.

Silicon-processed overhanging microgripper
Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems, 1992A silicon-processed microgripper, suitable for mounting on a micropositioner, has been designed and fabricated by combining surface and bulk micromachining. The microgripper consists of a silicon die (7 mm*5 mm), a 1.5 mm long support cantilever, made from boron-doped silicon substrate material (protruding from the die), and a 400 mu m long polysilicon

A novel electrothermal compliance microgripper
2019 International Conference on Mechatronics, Electronics and Automotive Engineering (ICMEAE), 2019In this paper, a novel microgripper based on two perpendicular arrangements of beams and a chevron actuator is shown. In each perpendicular arrangement, the constrained displacement of the double clamped beams, joined at their endpoint, produces a buckling in each beam, which favors the displacement of each arm of the microgripper, normally open. These

Development of Haptic Microgripper for Microassembly Operation
2010In recent times, dimensions of consumer products have decreased, with components sizes ranging down to micrometers/nanometers. In case of microproducts that are produced in low-medium quantities with many variants, the automation of their assembly process may not be economically profitable.

Optical Characterization with the Waveguide Microgripper
2009We have developed a novel waveguide microgripper capable of physically grasping a microobject while simultaneously delivering and collecting light through its waveguide arms. This capability allows extensive optical characterization of the structure being held such as transmission, reflection or fluorescence.
