Meeting Agenda
Design and build a low-cost, high-resolution nanomanipulator
Must use the SQUIGGLE piezoelectric linear actuators from New Scale Technologies.
Demonstrate its capabilities in RIT’s Nano-Bio Interface Laboratory
Mission Statement
Nanomanipulators are high resolution positioning instruments, and when used with high magnification devices, has the ability to maneuver objects thousands of times smaller than what can be seen with the human eye.
High costs ($10-50K) and inaccessibility of nanotechnology is very limiting to research
We need to develop a low-cost, high resolution, three-axis Cartesian nanomanipulator◦ SQUIGGLE piezoelectric linear actuators ◦ Sponsored by New Scale Technologies, a local company in
Victor, NY To be used at RIT’s Nano-Bio Interface Laboratory
Project Description

A SQUIGGLE motor consists of several piezoelectric ceramic actuators attached to a threaded nut, with a mating threaded screw inside.
Piezoelectric actuators change shape when electrically excited
Applying power to the actuators creates ultrasonic vibrations, causing the nut to vibrate in an orbit - similar to a person's hips in a "Hula Hoop."

◦ No parasitic drag - less wasted power◦ Zero backlash (with a light pre-load)◦ 500 nanometer resolution◦ Relatively High force◦ Smooth velocity at microscopic speeds◦ Off-power hold◦ Standard linear motors feature direct linear drive -
no gearbox◦ The speed and position of the threaded screw can
be precisely controlled.

Project Schedule
• Smoother contact where motor screw touches axis
• Brass inserts for screws in plastic parts• Machine the parts rather than 3-D print• Higher resolution via:
Closed loop control with sensorsCalibration of speed settings to achieve higher
• Limit switches with Flexible Printed Circuits rather than Copper tape
Future Suggestions
Successfully Designed Nanomanipulator to most customer needs
Hit all customer specifications except resolution
