This Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase II project will employ a new phenomena, high pressure electrokinetic (HPEK) pumping, for the development of high specific force precision actuators. This research effort will demonstrate the utility of this new phenomena in both microscopic as well as acroscopic regimes, by combining HPEK pumps with slave devices such as micro-machined bellows and cm-scale diaphragms, to effectively translate the high pressure hydraulic flow into usable work. Specific applications are targeted for the development of HPEK prototype devices. As part of this effort, the key actuator components employed in such devices will be systematically tested in order to assess optimurn designs, with subsequent integration into complete kinematic manipulation systems. These electrokinetic-based liquid pumps open the door to an entirely new class of devices for numerous high specific force applications. Applications include micropositioning systems, robotics components, supercritical chemical separations systems, and drug delivery systems.

这个小型企业创新研究（SBIR）第二阶段项目将采用一种新的现象，高压电动（HPEK）泵，用于开发高比力精密执行器。 这项研究工作将证明这种新现象在微观和宏观制度中的实用性，通过将HPEK泵与微加工波纹管和厘米级膜片等从动装置相结合，有效地将高压液压流转化为可用的工作。 HPEK原型器件的开发针对特定的应用。作为这项工作的一部分，在这种设备中使用的关键致动器组件将进行系统测试，以评估最佳设计，随后集成到完整的运动操纵系统。 这些基于电动的液体泵为众多高比力应用的全新设备类别打开了大门。应用包括微定位系统，机器人组件，超临界化学分离系统和药物输送系统。
