Flexural-hinge micro-positioning device for synchrotron experiments

Flexural hinges are used more and more in microsystem technology. Recently, the néel institute’s technical services (SeraS) were requested to manufacture and to simulate the behaviour of a compact positioning device to be dedicated to an x-ray beamline at the european Synchrotron research facility (eSrf), Grenoble. The purpose of this assembly is to position a sample in the x-ray beam with an isotropic precision of a few microns. it is mounted on a robotic manipulator, which is part of a bench for transfer of crystal samples to the goniometric head of an x-ray diffractometer. The main technical challenge of the system lies in a hardened steel part of complex shape. Full text
