“…From this perspective, Zhong and Yang developed a device that provides micro-vibration in 2D VAG of silicon samples. Results verified that the surface quality was improved [24]. Furthermore, Tawakoli and Azarhoushang (2008) established a 1D VAG system to investigate the grinding process of 100Cr6 steel.…”

Recently, materials with superior mechanical properties have been developed and become the optimum choice in many applications such as optics and electronics. However, most of these materials such as glass and ceramics are considered difficult-to-cut materials due to their high hardness. Machining such materials by conventional machining leads to low surface quality, rapid tool wear, and high cutting forces. Currently, Vibration-Assisted Machining (VAM) is found to be effective for machining difficult-to-cut materials. Nevertheless, researchers are investigating how to optimize the machining parameters and to test the possibility of cutting a variety of novel engineering materials. This work reviews the different attempts which have been carried out to investigate the effect of VAM parameters during machining processes. This endeavour helps to get a deep understanding of the VAM, address its critical issues, and propose a framework to design a high performance VAM devices.

“…A similar approach is found in the designs for fixtures that are developed for vibration-assisted grinding in micro-manufacturing, see e.g. Zhong and Yang (2004). Contrary to the concepts discussed above, Daniali and Vossoughi (2009) present a concept where the itself fixture is moved on a the baseplate instead of both baseplate and fixture.…”

Fixtures are used to fixate, position and support workpieces and represent a crucial tool in manufacturing. Their performance determines the result of the whole manufacturing process of a product. There is a vast amount of research done on automatic fixture layout synthesis and optimisation and fixture design verification. Most of this work considers fixture mechanics to be static and the fixture elements to be passive. However, a new generation of fixtures has emerged that has actuated fixture elements for active control of the part-fixture system during manufacturing operations to increase the end product quality. This paper analyses the latest studies in the field of active fixture design and its relationship with flexible and reconfigurable fixturing systems. First, a brief introduction is given on the importance of research of fixturing systems. Secondly, the basics of workholding and fixture design are visited. After which the

“…Gripper is a key component to accomplish the optical precision manipulation, which should be able to grip and release the part stably and reliably. Piezoelectric actuators are ideal driving components for grippers, which are widely used in various applications [3,4], because of their advantages: large output force, stable displacement, high response speed, small volume and ease of use. Flexure hinges possess the ability of precision motion, reliability, ease of fabrication, compactness and feasibility, which are increasingly used in micro driving mechanism [5].…”

A piezoelectric gripper with force sensor is presented for an optical precision manipulation. The gripper utilizes flexure hinge mechanisms with two-step amplification to achieve output displacement. Micro displacement amplification principle of the gripper is analyzed and verified using finite element analysis (FEA) soft. A force sensor of resistance strain type with elastic plate structure of bi-cantilever is designed, which is fixed at the bottom of the gripper to detect force signals during the working process. The strain foils adopt a connecting method of full-bridge. According to theoretical analysis and FEA of the force sensor, bonding positions of the strain foils are determined. Experimental results indicate that the sensor has good linearity and little temperature drift and creep, and its resolution is less than 100mN. Micro-vision method is used to test the gripper, and maximum displacement is 302μm.
