** Nano-Hexapod Specifications

The nano-hexapod should have a maximum height of $95\,mm$, support samples up to $50\,kg$ and have a stroke of $\approx 100\,\mu m$.

Has shown in Fig.\nbsp{}ref:fig:nano_hexapod_elements, it only has few parts: two plates and 6 active struts in between.
|

Each strut is composed of one flexible joint at each end, and one actuator in between (Fig.\nbsp{}ref:fig:picture_nano_hexapod_strut).

First flexible modes at around $\SI{700}{Hz}$ could be obtained.
|

|

Amplified Piezoelectric Actuators (APA) were found to be the most suitable actuator for the nano-hexapod due to its compact size, large stroke and adequate stiffness.
|

The chosen model was the APA300ML from Cedrat Technologies (shown in Fig.\nbsp{}ref:fig:picture_nano_hexapod_strut).

The chosen model was the APA300ML from Cedrat Technologies (shown in Fig.\nbsp{}ref:fig:nano_heaxpod_strut_picture).
|
||||
It is composed of three piezoelectric stacks, a lever mechanism increasing the stroke up to $\approx \SI{300}{\um}$ and decreasing the axial stiffness down to $\approx \SI{1.8}{\um}$.
|
||||
One of the three stacks can be used as a force sensor, at the price of loosing $1/3$ of the stroke.
|
||||
This has the benefits providing good "collocation" between the sensor stack and the actuator stacks, meaning that the active damping controller will easily be made robust cite:souleille18_concep_activ_mount_space_applic.

A bench were developed to help the mounting of the struts such that the APA and the two flexible joints are well aligned.

This helped reducing the effects of flexible modes of the APA.
