摘要
A tool for micromanipulation is presented in this paper. A titanium gripper is fabricated by a combination of electro-discharge machining and etching, the latter of which is to provide a material less prone to cracking by removing the heat-affected surface. Evaluation of the design has been carried out by finite-element analysis and the performance of the gripper has been qualitatively as well as quantitatively established. The manipulation system to which the tool belongs is also briefly described.
