Research Abstract |
In the field of biotechnology, medical instruments and materials technology, researches which treat observation and operation of objects with a nano meter order are performed briskly. Under the present precision device, the micromanipulation under the microscope is required a lot of skill and operations are inefficient. In the micro space, it is difficult to reproduce dexterous operation le the person's finger movement. The micro manipulator has multiplicity of uses. Therefore, various performances, for example the multi degree of freedom movement, the automatic tracking, the automatic operation, are requested from end users. And flexibility is demanded for the precise positioning device which actuates the micromanipulator. In this study, a precision stage constructed of electromagnetic actuators using the rubber has been developed. To install this stage in the optical microscope on the market, the size of the stage is limited. We designed the structure again to downsize the stage. And the actuator which has new operation mode has been developed. The movable range, the positioning performance, and the frequency response of the multi degree of freedom stage that had been composed of these actuators have been investigated by the experiment. Availability and marketability of this stage to the micromanipulation have been discussed.
