Abstract
Within the context of miniaturization of mechatronic systems, the development of a powerful micro-rotative actuator is an important topic of research. Such new actuation systems need to be validated on a specific test bed. Due to the dimensions and the very small torque to be measured, special low friction bearings are necessary and very precise alignment procedure needs to be developed.
