Adhesive forces become predominant in the micro world comparing to the gravity effect implying the development of new micro manipulation strategies. This paper presents the design and conception of a gripper that use the inertial principle for the release (applying a high acceleration, in the order of 10’000g) and the adhesion for catching a micro part of 50μm with the goal of precisely control the position after release. Experiments were conducted and showed a positioning repeatability of 2μm to 6μm depending on the relative humidity with a success rate of more than 90%.
