A MICROMACHINED VALVE FOR FLUID APPLICATIONS

A micro-valve (10) for fluid applications has been developed using the micro-fabrication technologies of bulk micro-machining, and LIGA high aspect ratio machining. Coupled with a magnetic micro-actuator (32), the operation of this micro-valve (10) has been demonstrated for the control of liquids. O...

Zusammenfassung:A micro-valve (10) for fluid applications has been developed using the micro-fabrication technologies of bulk micro-machining, and LIGA high aspect ratio machining. Coupled with a magnetic micro-actuator (32), the operation of this micro-valve (10) has been demonstrated for the control of liquids. On a mis au point une microvalve (10) pour applications fluidiques, en utilisant les techniques de micro-usinage de volumes et l'usinage de type LIGA à rapport d'aspect élevé. Couplée à un microactuateur magnétique (32), cette microvalve (10) s'est révélée utile pour le contrôle des liquides.
