Inauguration plateforme µROBOTEX

Dans le cadre de la semaine européenne de la robotique, FEMTO-ST inaugure lundi 25 novembre à 10h dans les locaux de l’ENSMM (Besançon), sa nouvelle plateforme dédiée au développement de projets sur la manipulation et l’assemblage automatisé de micro/nano-composants dont les dimensions peuvent être inférieures à 10 μm.

Financée par le Programme d’Investissement d’Avenir et le Conseil régional e Franche-Comté, cette installation de 780 K€ est aujourd’hui opérationnelle et des premiers tests d’imagerie et d’utilisation du FIB ont été effectués avec succès. L’équipe de développement de cet équipement, constituée d’ingénieurs et d’enseignants-chercheurs spécialisés en micro/nano-robotique et en vision sous MEB, a mis en place un mode de fonctionnement favorisant, notamment, l’émergence de projets de transfert de la recherche vers l’industrie.
