Abstract
New miniaturized products include more and more functions in a limited volume. This evolution leads to a drastic reduction of component size and the miniaturization requires very high precision for manufacturing, assembly and packaging operations.
This chapter presents several concepts of high precision robots that meet the permanent issue of product miniaturization.
The works that will be presented directly connect to fields of interest to the IFToMM and also demonstrate how they can generate attractive opportunities for Swiss companies.
