First research achievements of the project ASSEMIC on microhandling and - assembly technologies

Mechatronic competences represent a strong component in Microsystem Technologies, but very especially in microhandling and -assembly, a field with challenging requirements. The Research and Training Network "Advanced Methods and Tools for Handling and Assembly in Microtechnology" (ASSEMIC) addresses this research field at a European scale. Topics as design and development of microgrippers, intelligent micromanipulation methods and microassembly technologies for industrial production are dealt with by the 14 institutions participating in this project
