Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to realize motion mechanisms with not only nanometer positioning resolution but also millimeter positioning range. This research project consists of three subjects : (1) Dynamics of Nano-motion Mechanisms, (2) Control of Redundant Mechanism, and (3) Precision and Non-contact Magnetic Actuators. (1) Dynamics of Nano-motion Mechanisms Dynamic characteristics of a harmonic speed reducer for precision robots and an air bearing lead screw mechanism for steppers are experimentally examined within several moving ranges from sub-micrometer to millimeter orders. Both the mechanisms show macro-dynamics and microdynamics depending on the moving ranges. (2) Control of Redundant Mechanism The most suitable controller for redundant two-stage positioning system is theoretically and experimentally examined. The two-stage positioning system includes a ball lead screw and a DC motor as a coarse motion mechanism, and a PZT actuator and an elastic hinge mechanism as a fine motion mechanism. PID, optimal state feed back, H_<inf>, sliding mode, fuzzy and neural controller are applied to the system. Effect of step height, the table mass and constant load changes on the positioning performances are evaluated. The fuzzy and neural controllers show the best robustness in the seven controllers. (3) Precision and Non-contact Magnetic Actuators Positioning accuracies of sensorless control system using electromagnetic actuators are examined. Two types of displacement estimators using an observer or a magnetic flux sensor are tested. The displacement resolutions of the estimators are 0.1 - 0.15 μm.
