This paper presents a novel, sliding, A-shaped microrobot with nanometric resolution for precision positioning applications. The microrobot is actuated near its natural frequency using a piezoelectric stack actuator to produce translational motion. The dynamic modeling of the mechanism is based on the assumptions of the linear piezoelectric behavior and the Coulomb friction model. Using this model the required condition for generating net motion is found. The suitability of three simple, friction-based locomotion modes for implementation on the proposed device is addressed. Influences of some important configuration parameters on the behavior of the microrobot, based on defined criteria, are investigated. Even with non-optimal configurations, simulations show a velocity of 1 mm/s, a motion resolution of 180 nm, and a power consumption of 1.5 mW. Comparisons made with other microrobots of the same locomotion modes indicate good improvements in all criteria.
► Dynamic modeling and analysis of an improved, novel A-shaped microrobot.
► Introducing three new friction-based locomotion principle on the proposed microrobot.
► Simultaneous applying of motion principles near resonance operation of microrobot.
► Introducing three evaluating criteria: motion velocity and resolution, and power.
► Performance evaluation of proposed robot based on the mentioned evaluating criteria.
