What is the microactual?

drives generally use energy source to move or control mechanical components. They often occur in engines and various machines. Over the years, many types of mechanical devices have been miniaturized, but this process usually requires individual components to be much smaller. Miniaturization in the 21st century proceeded to the extent that microactuators and other parts are so small that strong microscopes must often be used to see them. Industrial processes such as lithography and micro machining are used to produce a microactor, and there are various types that can also be produced.

Electrostatic microactual is one common variety, but scientists can also create electromagnetic varieties that can produce multiple energy for powering equipment as a motor. Sometimes it is difficult to produce them, but are made by methods that are usually used to create integrated circuits. Motors Small about 0.04 inches (1 millimeter) were made by Avědci often used to insert small executionersÉtrů into biological cells.

There is also a piezoelectric microactuer with composite materials that react similarly to the crystals, which create an electrical voltage when pushing. Thin movies can be stored on silicon, which can produce movement at very short distances. Sometimes they were used in micro miniature rotors. Ultrasonic microactuators are often used in small engines built into piezoelectric devices. For example, they can be integrated into autofocus mechanisms of small cameras.

moving mechanical components can be built on a small scale, but the electrostatic microactual is usually made of a material that is bent on the basis of electric cartridges. Movement is generally microscopic on a scale and a small amount of force is formed. Some rotary engines and linear motion ridges have been developed on the basis of the principle.

microactuators can be usedTo create small mirrors for display and projectors. Microscopic current relays and small hard disk control mechanisms often use such miniature devices. They are often called microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), a category that includes many types of miniature moving parts.

The production of microactuators can be done by etching the parts to the silicone. Lithography is often used for the production of circuits. In this process, light, chemicals and a layer composed of parts to be added are usually combined. The finished product is usually produced in layers, while micro machining often includes lasers and scanning electron microscopes, for example to place individual atoms and cells. Both processes can be used to move the microactuator parts and build a micro-miniature device.
