Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aims to enhance the performance of the hybrid electric-pneumatic ultra-precision vertical positioning device for aspherical lens generators. First, a new pressure adjustment method in the balancing cylinder when the tool change occurred is proposed. The proposed method utilizes a feed-forward control and a high precision quick response pneumatic regulator. The validity of the proposed control method is evaluated and its superiority is indicated. Second, a pressure control method to reduce motor load during material processing and a disturbance observer to estimate the external force applied to the stage without requiring external sensors are proposed. The experimental results showed that our proposal could reduce the motor load during material processing, and the disturbance observer could continuously estimate the external force acting on the stage while maintaining the stage positioning performance.
