Abstract :
Flexible and miniaturized production lines, known as desktop-, pocket- or micro-factories, with an integrated cleanroom are needed to meet the performance requirement of today´s microproducts. In respect thereof, a miniaturized, large workspace robot is developed for microassembly tasks. Improvements based on recent benchmark tests and simulations are rounding out the overall paper.
