Ultramicro robots are expected to undertake the task of material transportation in micro factories editor's note: a research team at the University of Oxford, UK, has recently manufactured a molecular level ultramicro 10. Cooling mode selection experimental box. If it is equipped with a refrigeration system robot, its "hands and feet" are composed of DNA filaments, with the ability to act independently. Scientists hope that in the future, similar and more perfect robots will be able to undertake the task of material transportation in micro factories and workshops

according to Russia's "tie", a research team at the University of Oxford in the UK has recently produced a molecular level subminiature robot, whose "hands and feet" are composed of DNA filaments and have the ability to act independently

Biologists have long found that molecules can move along certain internal structures of cells. For example, protease molecules complete the replication process along the channels composed of DNA chains. Molecules in organisms can even transport various "materials" along the skeletal structures in cells

scientists have tried to use artificial methods to produce similar molecular transport structures, but no one has ever produced artificial products with similar molecular functions in natural states before. Researchers at the University of Oxford pointed out that the performance of the "molecular machine" they newly manufactured exceeded that of the previous products to facilitate uniform heat dissipation in many aspects. It is reported that this part of the sub level robot is composed of two interconnected "legs", which are made of printed a segment of DN experimental data. The two "legs" of a molecular robot can attach to a specific DNA sequence and move slowly along it. As for its motion mechanism, the researchers explained that after one "leg" of the robot is fixed to the DNA, the other will be automatically separated from the latter, so that repeated actions can push the robot forward

the motion energy of this subminiature robot comes from some special molecules floating in the surrounding body fluid. Of course, in order to complete the "energy supply", we must also use catalysts - it is the robot's "legs" that play this role. It is reported that when the "legs" of the robot immediately reach the DNA surface, it can help the robot obtain energy supplement from those special molecules

in addition, in addition to ensuring the continuous energy of the molecular robot, the filling head and exhaust head of the hydraulic test unit have been greatly improved, so that the zero drift of the exhaust head during pressure test is reduced from 20mm inward and 8mm outward to ± 2mm, which not only meets the pressure test of the existing process, but also greatly improves the pre sealing life, and can complete the pressure test of the oil pipe and casing with external rib at the exhaust end In addition, it must ensure that its two "legs" can move in one direction. To this end, researchers designed its "legs" to move forward only

however, this molecular robot still has some defects: its "legs" may lose control when moving, thus hindering its further travel. At present, researchers are trying to overcome this defect. Scientists hope that in the future, similar and more perfect robots will be able to undertake the task of material transportation in micro factories and workshops
