Input-shaping methods for a linear motor motion stage with a Passive RFC(Reaction Force Compensation) Mechanism

초록

The residual vibration during the high acceleration and deceleration of a motion stage degrades the manufacturing-system productivity and lifespan. Although a passive RFC mechanism with a movable magnet track reduces the residual vibration of the system base, a magnet track resonance may occur according to the motion profile, and the mover inposition error increases due to the residual vibration of the magnet track. We investigated input-shaping methods for a linear motor motion stage with a passive RFC mechanism. An air-bearing linear motor motion stage with the passive RFC mechanism is built, and the dynamic characteristic of the passive RFC mechanism is identified using a free-vibration test. Then, mover velocity profiles are generated using various input-shaping methods. Further, the effects of the input-shaping methods on the air-bearing linear motor motion stage are investigated by comparing the magnet track oscillation, settling time, and mover in-position error. Finally, several input-shaping methods are applied to reduce the mover rise-time delay for the proposed linear motor motion stage. A properly shaped input motion profile removes the residual vibration of the passive RFC mechanism without any additional devices, as well as reducing the transmitted reaction force and the in-position error. © Copyright The Korean Society for Precision Engineering.
