Research Abstract |
In many applications of multi-degree-of-freedom mechanisms as positioning devices, a large working space and fine resolution must be simultaneously achieved. For example, the accuracy required in a device for making the master disk of a next generation DVD is expected to be 20 nm in a three-dimensional space of 50 X 50 X 50 mm. We have proposed a spatial in-parallel actuated mechanism with redundant active joints for gross and fine motions for simultaneously realizing a large working space and a fine resolution in applications mentioned above. Conditions and method of the kinematic synthesis of the mechanism has been clarified, and a kinematic synthesis has been carried out. Based on the synthesis result, we built an experimental positioning robot driven by AC servo actuators with ball screws for generating gross motion and by PZT actuators for generating fine motion. Its fine positioning characteristics and its working space have been experimentally investigated. As the results, the experimental positioning robot proposed in this research simultaneously realized a fine resolution (20nm) within a large working space (80mm). We also analyzed static characteristics of a rolling spherical bearing that is a key machine element of the in-parallel actuated positioning robot.
