From science to society
FEMTO Engineering is an R&D center of the foundation FC Innov
FEMTO Engineering offers technologies in micro-assembly, in micro-manipulation, in nano-machining and control of objects at the micrometer scale and below for industrial and academic users with the new Micro & Nano Robotics Center.
Access to these small assemblies allows the realization of new objects: smaller and more integrated, offering new features (mechanical, electrical...)
Different technological solutions are available:
– micro-assembly of objects ranging from a few nanometers to a few micrometers (optical fibers, microactuators, microsensors), via the NanoRobotic station which allows up to four 6-axis robots to be controlled.
– micro-manipulation of objects from a few nanometers to a hundred microns in micromechanics (nanotubes, cellulose nanofibers/microfibers), integrated optics, and medicine (cell manipulation) via the MicroRobotex station (vacuum robotics).
– nano-machining of all types of materials with an accuracy of a few nanometers (microactuators, force microsensors, microgrippers).
– control of objects at the micrometer scale with a custom-made vision system, allowing to achieve subpixel resolutions (3D reconstruction, active assembly of micro-optics/resonator system, force measurement by phase measurement on micro-vernier).
– solutions robotiques sans contact for biomedical applications with the association of collaborative robots.
