Research Abstract

In this study, we confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed outer rotor 3-DOFspherical actuator by clarifying its operational principle employing FEM. Moreover, we developed a new position sensing method of a mover and the feedback control method for this actuator. The excellent performances of the actuator was conformed though the optimization analysis of magnetic circuit and control gain. A prototype was designed using the obtained analyzed results. In future, we are going to verify the effectiveness of the actuator through the measurement of this prototype.
