Abstract

This article discusses the potential applications of robotic micropositioning systems in applications ranging from industry to research. The demand for micropositioning systems is increasing due to the rapid development of the technology and its wide range of applications. This paper describes a general-purpose microobject manipulation platform consisting of a microtool control system and a microobject detection/recognition system. The development of the manipulation tool is discussed, and experimental studies on micropositioning are carried out. The workflow, accuracy, repeatability, and resonant frequencies of the system are the most important precision characteristics required for the design of the manipulation system under development. The paper concludes with the results of the investigations and the technical characteristics of the microobject manipulation platform.
