과거 볼베어링을 이용하던 하드 디스크 드라이브(HDD: Hard Disk Drive)의 스핀들 모터는 유체 동역학 베어링(FDB: Fluid Dynamic Bearing) 장착으로 저전력 소비 및 고속 구동이 가능하게 되었다. 하드 디스크 드라이브에서 스핀들 모터의 제어는 주된 읽기 쓰기 동작을 위한 가장 기본적인 제반 여건이며, 단위 면적당 데이터(BPI)가 증가함에 따라서 스핀들 모터의 제어 성능은 드라이브 성능과 직결되는 더욱 중요한 인자중의 하나가 되었다. 본 논문에서는 스핀들 모터의 샘플링 주기를 기존 대비 4배 증가하여 제어 성능 향상하는 4배속 스핀들 모터 제어 방법을 제시하고 있다.

1980년초 미국 실리콘 밸리 소재 시게이트사에 의해 5메가 바이트 용량의 개인 컴퓨터용 하드 디스크 드라이브(HDD)가 처음 소개된 이후, HDD 개발 기술은 꾸준한 성장을 거듭하였다. 최근 인터넷의 보급으로 엄청나게 많은 정보저장용량을 요구하게 되었으며, 정보저장기기에 대한 폭발적인 수요에 부합하고 있는 기기중의 하나가 HDD이다. 드라이브에서 스핀들 모터의 제어는 주된 읽기 쓰기 동작을 위한 가장 기본적인 제반 여건이며, 단위 면적당 데이터(BPI)가 증가함에 따라서 스핀들 모터의 제어 성능은 드라이브 성능과 직결되는 더욱 중요한 인자중의 하나가 되었다. 본 논문에서는 스핀들 모터의 제어 성능 향상을 위해 스핀들 모터의 출력 이득을 조정하여 제어 분해능을 향상시키는 방법을 제시하고 있다.

This paper presents a strategy to drive built in-type spindle induction motor which is used as CNC(Computer Numerical Control) in the industry. Gopinath model flux estimator which is composed of current model to be profitable in the low speed range and voltage model to be profitable in the high speed range is used for rotor flux estimation. Moreover this paper presents to drive the spindle motor in the high speed range by using the flux weakening control. High speed operation of spindle motor in the field weakening region is verified through simulations and experiments.

The hard disk is one of the most frequently used storage in IPTV sep-top box. It has large storage capacity and provides fast I/O speed compared to its price whereas it causes high power consumption due to mechanical characteristics of spindle motor. In order to play streaming data in the set-top box, spindle motor of hard disk keeps active mode and it causes high power consumption. In this paper, We propose an offset-buffering and multi-mode spin-down method to reduce power consumption for streaming data playback. The offset-buffering inspects the user's viewing pattern and performs buffering based on the analysis of viewing pattern. So, it can maintain the status of spindle motor as idle mode for long time. Besides, it can reduce power consumption by spinning down according to offset-buffer size. The experimental result shows that proposed offset-buffering and multi mode spin-down method is about 28.3% and 12.5% lower than the full-Buffering method in terms of the power consumption and spin-down frequency, respectively.

The control moment gyroscope(CMG) which is well known as an effective high-torque-generating device is applicable to space vehicles, airplanes, ships, automobiles, robotics, etc. for attitude stabilization and maneuver. This paper deals with the overall details of 100Nm-class CMG development for various industrial applications, and provides the activities and results associated with the CMG system-level requirement analysis, the motor subsystem design/manufacturing/integration, the construction of ground support equipment, and the performance test and evaluation. The performance test reveals that the CMG generates the torque output more than 120Nm in as-designed operation of spin motor and gimbal motor.

A HDD adopts a sensorless brushless DC (BLDC) motor as a spindle motor. Because there is no direct sensor measuring rotor position. open loop commutations with inductive sensing are used to increase the rotor speed up to a certain speed where the zero crossings of the back electromotive force (EMF) voltage are measurable. Therefore, successful open loop commutations are necessary for the stable start-up control of the spindle motors. In this paper, the time scale and the number of the open loop commutations are employed for design parameters to guarantee robustness to torque constant variation and initial rotor position. The design results are verified by experiments on a very low current start-up of the spindle motor with various environment. The experimental results show that the design results can decrease the start-up failure rate considerably.

A spindle with a built-in motor can be used to simplify the structure of a machine tool system, but the rotor inevitably has unbalanced mass. This paper presents an analysis of the dynamic behavior. The spindle was used in a CNC lathe and investigated using the finite element method and transfer matrices. The high-speed spindle can be very sensitive to the rotation of an unbalanced mass, which has a harmful effect on many machine tools. Thus, a balancing procedure was performed with a spindle-bearing system for the CNC lathe by numerical analysis. The balancing was performed through the influence coefficient method, and the whirl orbit radii before and after balancing were compared to evaluate the effects. The results show that the rotational speed of the spindle seriously affects the whirl responses of the spindle. The whirl responses were also affected by other factors, such as the unbalanced mass and bearing stiffness. The balancing of the assembled spindle model significantly reduced the whirl orbit magnitude.

The STW(servo track writing) system which is the process of writing servo signals on disks before assembling in drives uses the spindle motor-chuck mechanism to realize low cost because the spindle motor-chuck mechanism has merit which can simultaneously write multi-disk by piling up disks in hub. Therefore, when the spindle motor-chuck mechanism of horizontal type operates in high rotation speed it is necessary to reduce the effect of RRO(repeatable run-out) and NRRO(non-repeatable run-out) to achieve the high precision accuracy of nano-meter level during the STW process. In this paper, we analyzed that the slip in assembly surfaces can be caused by the mechanical tolerance and clamping force in hub-chuck mechanism and can affect NRRO performance. We designed springs for centering and clamping considering centrifugal force by the rotation speed and assembly condition. The experimental result showed NRRO performance improves about 30 % than case of weak clamping force. The result shows that the optimal design of the spindle motor-chuck mechanism can effectively reduce the effect of NRRO and RRO in STW process.

In this paper a single-wheeled robot called GYROBO is built and its hardware is implemented. The single-wheeled robot is similar to a rolling disk relying on gyroscopic motions to maintain its balance. The GYROBO consists of three actuators: a spin motor a tilt motor, and a drive motor. The spin motor spins a flywheel at a high rate so that it provides the balancing stability to upright the robot. The tilt motor controls steering of the robot by gyroscopic effect. The drive motor makes forward accelerated motion to the robot. Several models are designed. Experimental works of the GYROBO to turn and move forward have been presented.
