우주물체 전자광학 감시체계(OWL: Optical Wide-field Patrol)의 50cm급 자동망원경 마운트 시스템은 인공위성 관측을 위해 고속으로 움직이면서도 안정적인 추적이 가능해야 하며, 무엇보다 해외설치를 위한 경량화 및 무인 운영을 위한 신뢰성 있는 시스템이어야 한다. 우리가 개발한 경위대식 마운트는 웜기어가 아닌 마찰구동 방식으로 백래쉬가 없고 소음 및 진동을 최소화할 수 있다. 마운트의 자체 중량은 약 400kg이며 최대 가반하중은 250kg까지 가능하다. 지향정밀도와 밀접한 연관이 있는 절대 반복도는 warm start의 경우 5 acrsec, cold start의 경우 10 arcsec이며, 별관측을 통한 추적오차는 10분동안 2 arcsec이내의 값을 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 마운트의 최대속도는 약 20deg/sec이며, 해외 환경에서의 작동을 위해 내부 온도제어를 통하여 이슬 및 결빙을 방지하도록 하였다.

The fundamental reason for gear noise is transmission error. Transmission error occurs because of STE (static transmission error) and DTE (dynamic transmission error), while a pair of gears is meshing. These errors are generated by the deflection of the teeth and the friction on the surface of the teeth. In addition, the vibration generated by transmission error leads to excited bearings. The bearings support the shafts, and the noise is radiated after exciting the gear casing. The analysis of the contact stress in helical gear tooth flanks indicates that it is due to impact loading, such as the sudden engagement and disengagement of a gear. Stress analysis is performed for different roll positions, in order to determine the most critical roll angle. Dynamic analysis is performed on this critical roll position, in order to evaluate variation in stresses and tooth contact force, with respect to time. In this study, transmission error analysis was implemented on a spur and helical gear with involute geometry and a modified geometry profile. In addition, in order to evaluate the intensity of impact due to sudden engagement and significant backlash, the impact factor was calculated using the finite element analysis results of static and dynamic maximum bending stresses.

The aim of this paper is to solve the chattering and delayed response problems caused by gear backlash. In the gear mechanism based systems, for example, in robot systems, the actuators provide the reduction gear with motors to transfer effectively electric power to mechanical power. Therefore, the gear backlash exists and is an unavoidable fact which makes many undesirable problems. In this paper, the authors try to make a solution for this issue and, introduce several control methods which are PID only, PID with Smith predictor and super-twisting algorithm based SMC(sliding mode control). Each control method is applied to the real plant in which strong backlash is included. By comparison results, it is clear that SMC gives the best control performance with little backlash effects. Also, the usefulness and effectiveness of proposed control method is verified by experiment.

This paper proposes a fuzzy logic cross-coupled controller using a new contouring modeling for a two-axis servo system. The general decoupled control approach may result in degraded contouring performance due to such factors as mismatch of axial dynamics and axial loop gains. In practice, such systems contain many uncertainties. The cross-coupled controller utilizes all axis position error information simultaneously to produce accurate contours. However, the conventional cross-coupled controllers cannot overcome friction, backlash, and parameter variations. Also since, it is difficult to obtain an accurate mathematical model of multi-axis system, here we investigate a fuzzy logic cross-coupled controller of servo system. In addition, new contouring error vector computation method is presented. The experimental results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed algorithm.
