Grasping and Interaction Force Feedback in Microassembly
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to define role and added value of force feedback in executing microassembly tasks, as well as to demonstrate microsystem technology based sensing devices which allow registering the relevant forces. In executing microassembly processes useful forces to sense are the grasping force, i.e. the force with which the object is gripped, and the interaction force, i.e. the force resulting from the interaction of the gripped object with the environment. Based on a general assembly process analysis, the requirements for force sensing are defined. Next, devices are shown which allow the identification of the contact forces and object positions.

Flexible microassembly system based on hybrid manipulation scheme
− In this paper, a flexible microassembly system based on hybrid manipulation schemes is proposed and applied to the assembly of a photonic component. In order to achieve both high precision and dexterity in microassembly, we propose a hybrid microassembly system with sensory feedbacks of vision and force. This system consists of the distributed 6-DOF micromanipulation units, the stereo microsc...
متن کاملThree-dimensional automated micromanipulation using a nanotip gripper with multi-feedback
In this paper, three-dimensional (3D) automated micromanipulation at the scale of several micrometers using a nanotip gripper with multi-feedback is presented. The gripper is constructed from protrudent tips of two individually actuated atomic force microscope cantilevers; each cantilever is equipped with an optical lever. A manipulation protocol allows these two cantilevers to form a gripper t...
متن کاملA Critical Review of Releasing Strategies in Microparts Handling
In the last ten years, various grasping principles and releasing techniques suitable for microassembly have been hypothesised and successfully tested. Since in microdomain adhesion forces overcome the gravity one, new grasping principles have been exploited to grasp microparts. Unfortunately, in microassembly the most critical phase is not to grasp a micropart, but to release it. Therefore, the...
متن کاملMulti-Probe Microassembly using GPU-based Vision Processing
Robotic micromanipulation and microassembly involves a significant degree of uncertainty. Because of this uncertainty it is necessary to use constant feedback to adjust to the changing state of the system. While a number of different techniques have been used in the literature, the multi-probe microassembly system has selected to exclusively use computer vision because it is non-contact making ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Modular and Compliant Microassembly Platform with Integrated Force Measurement Capabilities
There are many challenges associated with microassembly that are not present in macro-assembly such as poorly understood interactions and difficulty in taking measurements at the microscale. As a result, full automation of microassembly has not yet been achieved [1]. This has caused microassembly to take longer than automated macroassembly and to become a bottleneck in many assembly processes. ...
