6. RTC prototypes in France
Other work is underway in French research laboratories, in particular the MiNaRoB (Micro-/Nano-Robotics Biomédicale) team in the AS2M department of the FEMTO-ST Institute, Besançon, and the medical robotics team attached to the DEXTER team at LIRMM in Montpellier.
6.1 FEMTO-ST Institute, Besançon
As part of a project financed by Labex ACTION (http://www.labex-action.fr/), a prototype RTC has been manufactured in the AS2M department (automation and micromechatronics systems). It is equipped with a three-translation, three-rotation actuation unit (from OWIS, Germany) and features modular tube attachment systems. Tubes are generally purchased unbent, and their shaping is carried out at AS2M using dies and an oven capable of heating up to 600°C for 30 minutes, followed...
