A Thermally Actuated Polymer Micro Robotic Gripper for Manipulation of Biological Cells
The development of a novel polymer-based micro robotic gripper that can be actuated in a liquid medium is presented in this paper. The basic structure for the gripper is a trimorph thermal actuator with a platinum metal heater encapsulated by poly-para-xylylene C (parylene C) polymer layers. Due to the large difference of thermal expansion coefficients of the different layers, the actuator can ...
متن کاملA microgripper using piezoelectric actuation for micro-object manipulation
Design, fabrication and tests of a monolithic compliant-flexure-based microgripper were performed. The geometry design and the material tresses were considered through the finite element analysis. The simulation model was used to study in detail profiles of von Mises stresses nd deformation. The maximum stress in the microgripper is much smaller than the critical stress values for fatigue. The ...
متن کاملelectrostatically actuated fgm microgripper under the effect of thermal moment
in previous researches, mechanical behavior of a microgripper with homogenous and the same material has been studied. in this paper considering the desired characteristics of fgms, as a good thermal and wear resistance, the mechanical behavior of fgm microgripper under dc voltage and temperature variations is investigated. it is assumed that the two microbeams of the fgm microgripper are mounte...
متن کاملDesign of a Thermally-Actuated Gas Lift Safety Valve
Gas-lifted oil wells are susceptible to failure through malfunction of gas lift valve assemblies (GLV). One failure mode occurs when the GLV check valve fails and product passes into the well annulus, potentially reaching the wellhead. This is a growing concern as offshore wells are drilled thousands of meters below the ocean floor in extreme temperature and pressure conditions, and repair and ...
متن کاملCertification of SRM1960: Nominal 10 μm Diameter Polystyrene Spheres (“Space Beads”)
Experimental, theoretical, and calculational details are presented for the three independent micrometrology techniques used to certify the mean diameter of Standard Reference Materisd 1960, nominal 10 μm diameter polystyrene spheres ("space beads"). The mean diameters determined by the three techniques agreed remarkably well, with all measurements within 0.1% of each other, an unprecedented ach...
