Manufacturing of products in sizes from a millimeter down to a nanometer is playing an increasing role in the Danish industry. It can be components like screws to be used in hearing aids or in metal devices used for repairing veins. Handling of 3D micro objects like these poses special challenges due to the small absolute scale. In a recent PhD project, a fully automatic screwdriver was designed and manufactured to solve several problems of the assembly process.

DTU receives funding of 7.8 mill. DKK from Danish Council for Research and Innovation for an Innovation Consortium Project. The project is named “Centre for Electronic Corrosion (CELCORR)”and starts from 1st October 2007 for 3 years.
