Chapter 18 Handling for Micro-Manufacturing
Introduction
Presently, a large number of industrial developments are being made for compact products. The trend toward miniaturizing products such as electronic, optical and mechanical devices is motivating fundamental innovation in production processes. These compact products are composed of micro-components which are fabricated using different kinds of micro-manufacturing machines. Therefore a micro-manufacturing plant must be composed of different kinds of manufacturing machines and several inspection, assembling and packaging stations.
At a micro-manufacturing facility, the handling process includes transporting components from one location to another, orientation control ...
