THE INFLUENCE OF MICROELECTRONICS TO PRECISION MECHANICS DESIGN

Abstract

The microelectronics gives numerous new possibilities to design such a new type of devices in which the electronics and precision mechanics are integrated to fulfill new requirements. The extremely small dimensions of microelectronics is advantageous for this integrations of the control, of the information aquisition, transfer and evaluation, of decision making activities, together with the actuation, positioning and manipulating activities of precision mechanics; can achieve a new high performance of devices. Some concepts and exaples for mechatronical design are given in this paper.
