The severe problem in improving the positioning precision of a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) is the large detent farce caused by the permanent magnet arrangement. It is generally an undesired effect that contributes to the torque ripple, vibration and noise of machine. The detent force is arisen from the difference of the position of a permanent magnet end and a tooth position. In this paper, the four methods to reduce detent force were studied and analyzed. The methods are adjusting the width of permanent magnet, varying the shape of armature teeth, relocating the permanent magnet, and adjusting the width of permanent magnet and relocating the permanent magnet at the same time. To analyze the detent farce according to flour methods, a two-dimensional Finite Element Analysis [FEA] was used and we compared with the ratio of reduction of the detent farce according to the flour methods.

Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor (PMLSM) has high efficiency, high energy density, and high control-ability. But, the detent force always is produced by the structure of slot-teeth. There are the disadvantages such as noise and vibration of the apparatuses are induced and the control ability is curtailed because detent force acts as thrust ripple. Therefore, the detent force reduction is an essential requirement in PMLSM. Generally, the method, skewing permanent magnet or slot-teeth, is used to reduce the detent force. But the thrust is decreased at the same time. If permanent magnet is skewed, the lateral force which operates as the perpendicular direction of skew direction is generated in linear guide of PMLSM. So, V-skew model is proposed for the reduction of lateral force. The lateral force acts as braking force in linear motion guide, and it has bad influence to the characteristics of PMLSM. However, these problems will not be solved by 2-dimensional Finite Element Analysis (FEA). So, in this paper 3-dimensional FEA is applied to analyze the PMLSM where permanent magnet is skewed and has overhang. The detent force and thrust characteristics considering skew and overhang effects of permanent magnet are analyzed by 3-dimensional FEA and the results are compared with experimental values to verify the propriety of analysis.

Various methods have been discussed to reduce detent force in a tubular permanent magnet type linear single phase AC generator. In particular, the proposed methods depend on variations of the permanent magnet construction. These methods include two approaches in the form of sloped magnets, and conical magnets in addition to the conventional method of optimizing the magnet length. The undesired detent force ripples were calculated by a two dimensional Finite Element Method (FEM). Moreover, the generated electromotive force in the stator coils was calculated for each configuration of the permanent magnet. The experimental results agreed well with those obtained from the FEM-based simulations. Sufficient reduction in the detent force was achieved over the range of 40% while the root mean square of the output voltage was maintained. It was found that sloping the permanent magnet decreased the detent force and at the same time increased the generated rms voltage of the AC generator. The performance of the designed linear AC generator was evaluated in terms of its efficiency, total weight, losses, and power to weight ratio.

The detent force caused by the interaction of magnets with the teeth of a armature core deteriorates the driving performance of a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor. In this paper, we analyze the fields and forces of a linear synchronous motor with segmented or skewed magnet arrangement according to lateral overhang length of permanent magnets. For the analysis, the 3-dimensional equivalent magnetic circuit network method is used. The detent force and the static thrust are analyzed according to the segmented or skewed angle and the overhang length of permanent magnets, and the optimal angles that the detent force is minimized are found out in each case. The analysis results are compared with the experimental ones and shown a reasonable agreement.

The problem in improving the positioning precision of a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor(PMLSM) is the large detent force caused by the permanent magnet. The detent force is thought to arise from the difference of the position of a permanent magnet end and a tooth position. In this paper, Three methods of reducing detent force is presented The first method is adjusting the width of permanent magnet. The second method is varying the shape of armature teeth. The third method is the arrangement of the permanent magnet end. This paper compares with the ratio of reducing the detent force according to the three methods.

The detent force of the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) is caused by the interaction between the permanent magnet and the iron core of the mover without input current. It is a function of the mover position relative to the stator. This paper proposes a control based method to reduce the detent force for the PMLSM. This detent force that can be predicted by finite element method (FEM) is compensated by injecting the instantaneous current using the field oriented control (FOC) method. Both the simulated and experimental results are reported to validate the effectiveness of this proposed method.

This paper deals with the magnet arrangement for vibration reduction and improvement in Starting Characteristic of Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor (PMLSM). Thrust, detent force, normal force and lateral force are generated in PMLSM. The detent force and lateral force cause the vibration of PMLSM. The detent force and the lateral force are analyzed by using 3-Dimensional Finite Element Method (3-D FEM). The efficiency and vibration of PMLSM are measured by experiment.

Detent force of a permanent magnet linear motor(PMLSM) consist of cogging and drag forces, and should be minimized for high precision control purpose applications. This paper shows that the cogging force can be reduced effectively by employing 9 pole 10 slot structure. The drag force is minimized by optimizing the total length and shape of the exterior teeth of armature core simultaneously by using($1+{\lambda}$) evolution strategy coupled with response surface method. After optimization, the optimized PMLSM is proven to reduce 95% and 92.6% of the cogging and total detent forces, respectively, and give 12% and 6.4% higher Back-emf and thrust force, respectively, compared with a conventional 12 pole 9 slot structure under the same condition. Additionally, Simulation results by the proposed optimum design are verified by the experiment results.

A thin metal plate such as detent spring has the shape deformation due to the phenomenon of spring back after press machining and heat treatment process. This requires the correction of spring shape and force in final inspection process. To do correction of the shape deformation the impact force is manually applied to the bended part of detent spring after measuring the shape deformation and spring force. To develop the automatic spring force correction system, applied force of occurring plastic deformation must be derived from the experimental method. But frequent change of spring shape and material makes it difficult to accomplish the experimental method to be applied. This paper describes the analytical method for detent spring force correction system is to be substituted for the experimental method. FEM(Finite Element Method) is used to find the boundary value between elastic and plastic deformation in the analytical method. To confirm the validity of the analytical method, the result of two methods is compared each other at various applied force conditions. It shows that the simulation result of the analytical method is consistent with the result of the experimental method within the error bound ${\pm}$5%. The result of this paper is useful for development of the automatic spring correction system and reduction of the complicated and tedious processes involved in experimental method.

최근 저소음, 고속, 고추력의 반송장치가 요구됨에 따라 영구자석 선형동기전동기가 대두되고 있으나 반송경로 전장에 전기자를 설치하는 선형 동기전동기의 특성으로 인해 장거리 반송장치에 적용시 설치비용의 증가를 가져온다. 따라서 우리는 전기자를 분산시켜 배치하는 방법을 제안하여 비용증가의 문제점을 해결하고자 하였다. 하지만 가동자의 진행시 분산배치된 전기자 사이를 통과하게 되면 전기자의 불연속 구간인 단부에 의해 디텐트력이 발생하여 추력 맥동이 발생하고 기기 성능저하와 소음, 진동의 원인이 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 단부에 의한 영향을 저감하기 위해 전기자 끝단의 치 높이와 보조치 형상에 따른 디텐트력의 특성을 파악하고 다구찌의 실험계획법을 이용하여 단부 효과를 가장 저감할 수 있는 형상을 제안하였다.
