Proceedings ArticleDOI
Survey of sticking effects for micro parts handling
TL;DR: It appears that it will be difficult to overcome adhesion effects for the smallest parts, so manipulation of parts on the order of 10 micron or smaller may best be done in a fluid medium using techniques such as laser trapping, or dielectrophoresis.
Journal ArticleDOI
State of the art in micro forming and investigations into micro deep drawing
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the state-of-the-art in the micro forming of metals is given, where scaling effects occur in tribological aspects such as the friction coefficient, which increases with decreasing specimen size.
