This paper proposes the design of a new robot end-effector based on compliant constant-force mechanism for robot-assisted manufacturing, such as polishing. One uniqueness of the proposed end-effector lies in that it offers a constant contact force without using a force sensor and controller. An indu…
This paper presents the design, analysis and testing of a novel three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) compliant parallel-kinematic active constant-force stage. The active constant-force property enables a large travel and constant driving property, which is enabled by introducing symmetrical bistable flex…
Cell microinjection plays an important role in genetics, transgenics, and other biomedical fields. As compared with manual cell microinjection and position-based robotic cell microinjection, force-assisted robotic cell microinjection can improve the success rate and survival rate of the injected cel…
