“…Utilizing the technological capacity for rapid prototyping of mechatronic systems based on the piezo-structured ceramics, and the improvement of such systems is a prerequisite for the development of technology for manufacturing of mechatronic handling devices (MHD) that are able to perform a certain user-requested micro-or nano-operation. The past general use of piezo-actuators in a direction of motion (3, 3 or 3, 1) is to be extended for realization of piezo-structures for the operation tasks (Kasper, 2006;Chakarov, 2006).…”

“…By structuring ceramics as well as stacking and combining them with further elements, more piezoactuators axis motions are subjected for development. To produce movement parameters by combining various possibilities of structuring with appropriate servo-mechanism, which is currently realisable with very complex and large systems, is a promising design approach (Bar-Itzhack, 2000;Kostadinov, 2006;Kostadinov, 2005) for which the following four parameters are significant for determination of the reference task function of any mechatronic handling device:…”

This paper presents an investigation and development of mechatronic handling devices (MHD) based on a structured piezo ceramic with (3, 1)-piezoelectric effect for manipulation and processing of micro/nano operations. Following the synthesis of kinematic structure for micro-and nano-manipulation tasks based on structured piezo ceramics and closed kinematic structures, a specific multilayer design of piezo actuated MHD for micro-and nano-operations was developed. The MHD was mathematically modelled and a FEmodel was created and simulated with the program system ANSYS. Comparison study of the MHD prototypes was performed using obtained experimental results. An experimental set up was created that aimed to verify the mathematical and simulation models measuring system behaviour like force, displacement and stiffness.
