While dealing with sub-micrometer precision robots, thermal expansion is the most significant source of inaccuracy. Thermal variations in the environment, in the robot parts and in the frame change the robot geometry, lowering the robot precision. In this ...
This paper starts by presenting several examples of original flexible bearings and flexible articulated structures having 1 to 6 degrees of freedom to illustrate how flexures can soundly be used in high precision robotics. Then, the influence of the electr ...
In the fields of semiconductors, opto-electronic interconnection and microsystems in general, the demand for precise positionning has grown along with the increasing miniaturization of the structures which are to be handled or tested. In many cases an inap ...
In this paper we present our latest developments in high precision positioning and handling systems operating inside an SEM. The Laboratory in Scanning Electron Microscope concept (LAB-in-SEM) is proposed along with a description of our piezodriven manipul ...
The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) has successfully integrated the Bologna reform process that standardizes the Bachelor and Master programmes across Europe. This reform particularly affects the curriculum offered by the EPFL scho ...
