Linear motors are efficient mechanism that offers high speed and positioning accuracy. By eliminating mechanical transmission mechanisms such as ball screw or rack-pinion, much higher speed and greater acceleration can be achieved without backlash or excessive friction. However, an important disadvantage of linear motor system is its high power loss and heating up of motor and neighboring machine components on operation. For the application of the linear motors to precision machine tools an effective cooling method and thermal optimizing measures are required. This paper presents an investigation into the thermal behavior of linear motors with the objective of deriving the optimum cooling conditions. To reach these goals several experiments were carried out, varying operating and cooling conditions. From the experimental results, this research proposed cooling conditions to improve the thermal characteristics of the linear motors.

With conventional positioning apparatus, it is very difficult to simultaneously achieve the desired driving range and precision at the sub-micrometer level. Generally, lead screw and friction drive, etc., have been used as servo control systems. These have large driving ranges, and high-speed positioning is feasible. In this study, we present a global servo system controlled by a laser interferometer acting as a displacement measurement sensor for achieving positioning accuracy at the sub-micrometer level.

Conventional linear control schemes often fail to provide precise positioning of a control object under the influence of friction, deadzone, saturation, etc. This paper proposes a control scheme for a precise point-to-point positioning system, which behaves well even under the above influences. The proposed scheme is composed of a fuzzy-neural controller. The neural network is employed to improve the performance of the fuzzy logic. To illustrate the effectiveness of this scheme, experiments are carried out for the cases of a fuzzy controller, the proposed fuzzy-neural controller, and the results are compared with each other.

Conventional linear control fails to provide precise positioning of a control object under the influence of friction, deadzone, saturation, etc. This paper proposes a high-precision control scheme for a precise point-to-point positioning system, called an X-Y table, even under the same influences above. The proposed scheme is composed of a fuzzy precompensator and a PD controller. The fuzzy precompensator is employed to improve the performance of the PD controller. Its fuzzy rules are obtained from experimental evolutionary programming (EP), not from an expert. The effectiveness of the scheme is demonstrated by experiments on the X-Y table. with a positioning error of within 1$\mu\textrm{m}$.

For the precision positioning and tracking control, the proper friction compensation is essential. The friction causes steady state error. The friction compensation based on the velocity and the controlling input or the desired velocity provides limited performance if the compensation value is fixed. In this paper, a friction compensation scheme using a fuzzy logic is proposed. The friction compensation amount is adjusted depending on the velocity and controlling input. The proposed fuzzy friction compensator with a pole-assignment controller is implemented in a linear positioning system. To illustrate the effectiveness of this scheme, computer simulations and experiments are carried out for the cases of no friction compensation, the proposed fuzzy friction compensation, and another friction compensation scheme based on velocity and control input, and the results are compared with each other.

Voice Coil Motor is used linear motion actuator system that require precision positioning control. In order to control precision positioning of voice coil motor, Mathematical model of voice coil motor is needed. Mathematical model is obtained by combining voice coil motor's equation of motion with the equation of circuit and characteristic of voice coil motor. The induced model can predict output displacement according to duty ratio and amplitude. The model is verified by experimental test. Simulated results have tracking errors of less than 10 percent of experimental results.

Adaptive control system has evolved as an attempt to avoid degradation of the dynamic performance of a control system when environmental variations occurs. While the feedback control system is oriented toward the elimination of the effect of state perturbations, the adaptive control system is oriented toward the elimination of the effect of structural perturbation, upon the performances of the control system. The model reference adaptive controller is utilized in velocity loop controller for positioning and tracking is designed based on the linear decoupled dynamics.

In all Rapid Prototyping(RP) processes, computer-aided design(CAD) solid model is sliced into thin layers of uniform, but not necessarily constant, thickness in the building direction. Each cross-sectional layer is successively deposited and, at the same time, bonded onto the previous layer, the stacked layers form a physical part of the model. The objective of this study is to develop a method for obtaining necessary coordinates$(x,\;y,\;\theta_x,\;\theta_y)$ to position linear hotwire of the cutting system in three-dimensional space for the Variable Lamination Manufacturing process (VLM-S), which utilizes expandable polystyrene foam sheet as part material. In order to examine the applicability of the developed method to VLM-S, various three-dimensional shapes, such as a spanner, a patterned columm, and a pyramid were made using data obtained from the method.

The quality of a precision product, in genera, relies on the accuracy and precision of its manufacturing and inspection process. In many cases, the level of precision in the manufacturing and inspection system is also dependent on the positioning capability of tool with respect to the workpiece in the process. Recently the positioning accuracy level employed for some of precision product has reached the level of submicron and long range of motion is required. For example, for 1GDRM lithography, 20nm accuracy and 300nm stroke needs. This paper refers to the lithography stage especially fine stage. In this study, for long stroke and high accuracy, the dual servo system is proposed. For the coarse actuator, LDM(Linear DC Noter) is used and for fine or VCM is used ...
