The precise assembly of objects and machines at a microscopic level is permanently facing production with new challenges. A PTB patent which was granted for the adjustment setting of a micro-robot allows safe and comfortable operation by means of a PC-based controlling system. The high-precision mechanics perform linear displacements with a resolution of 0.1 μm and rotational displacements with a resolution of 1´. Collision of the observing cameras with the handling facility is, as a matter of principle, ruled out by the procedures.
