  • In the recent years, as the research and the development of micro and precision machinery become active, the interest of micro actuators using SMA(Shape Memory Alloy) has been increased. The dynamic characteristic analysis of SMA is necessary for actuator application and many common researches report the material characteristics of SMA sufficiently. However, the research on dynamic characteristics is very deficient. In this paper, the helical spring are fabricated with NiTi SMA wire of high resistivity. The force, response speed, temperature, and displacement are measured by digital force gauge, infrared thermometer, and laser displacement sensor so that the dynamic characteristics of this SMA is analyzed.

  • Turbine power control devices at a nuclear / thermoelectric power plant lead to failure by creating mechanical shocks and strong vibrations that are due to the strong elasticity of a spring and the inertia of the valve face during its rapid movement to block steam. To ensure durability of the turbine power control device, which is the main component in the power plant, it is necessary to develop a device that can prevent such vibrations. In this study, a cushion mechanism is added to the head of the hydraulic servo actuator, which is a turbine power control device. Moreover, the cushion mechanism, which includes various modifies shapes and orifices is investigated dynamically through modeling and simulations.

  • Smooth picture module is operated by vibration to tilt the light from the DMD (digital micro mirror device) of DLP projection TV, which makes the screen of the TV smoother and DMD chip cost lower. To satisfy the vibration characteristics of smooth picture module, it is designed by optimizing moment of inertia, spring constant and damping coefficient, using structural and fluid dynamic simulation that showed a good agreement with experimental data. To reduce the material cost and moment of inertia, engineering plastic is used and the reliability is estimated. A VCM (voice coil motor) type actuator for smooth picture has to satisfy performance requirements such as higher driving force, lower power consumption, and lower cost. The initial design and optimization for VCM was performed using FE analysis. It allowed us to optimize the design of magnetic circuit of the proposed actuator to obtain higher force while maintaining a lower cost.

  • The plunger speed of solenoid actuator is affected by mass of plunger magnetic motive force. inductance, and return spring. These factors are not independent but related with each other according to design characteristics of solenoid actuator So, it is impossible to change the designed value for the purpose of increasing plunger speed. In this paper, we performed the FEM analysis for non-magnetic ring which is used for increasing attraction force and plunger speed by concentration of effective magnetic flux, and also performed simulation for dynamic characteristics of plunger. And, we proved the propriety of these by experiments.

  • In this paper, a new modeling of a fine actuator for an optical pick-up has been proposed and multiobjective optimization of the actuator has been performed. The fine actuator is constituted of the bobbin which is supported by wire suspension, the coils which wind around the bobbin, and the magnets which cause the magnetic flux. If current flows in the coils, magnetic force is so produced as to be balanced with spring force of wire, so the bobbin is pisitioned. In this model the transfer function from input voltage to output displacementof bobbin has been obtained so that we can describe this integrated system with electromagnetic and mechanical parts. Wire suspension is regarded as a continuous Euler beam, damper as distributed viscous damping, and bobbin as a rigid body which can move up- and down- ward motion only. According to the model, the high frequency dynamic characteristics of the fine actuator can be known and the effect of damping can be investigated while the conventional second order model cannot. In multiobjective optimization, two objective functions have been chosen to maximize the fundamental frequency and the sensitivity with respect to the input voltage of the actuator so that Pareto's optimal solutions have been obtained using .epsilon.-constraint method. These objective functions will satisfy the trends which will enhance the access speed and reduce the tracking error in the optical pick-up technology of next generation. In the result of optimization, we obtain the designs of the optical pick-up fine actuator which has high speed, high sensitivity and low resonant peak. Furthermore, we offer the relation between two object functions so that the designer can make easy choice.
