Human and technical capabilities are at their limit when it comes to innovations on the micro-scale. Precise assembly with micrometer accuracy remains a challenge. MiCROW is a project to transfer the knowledge and proficiency of micro and nanohandling into a flexible microfactory (MiCROW). This machine will allow for intuitive handling and assembly of smallest components with very high precision. MiCROW’s benefits are its compactness, tele-operated and intuitive handling, a variety of available tools and its customizability. The aim of this project is to develop MiCROW with its tools and achieving market maturity. It is planned to start up a company during the project to successfully promote microhandling and microassembly at reasonable costs.
