Design Method of Magnesically Suspended Positioning Mechanism : 1st Report, Actuator System Synthesis and Decoupling by Mechanism Structural Design

Abstract

Graphical synthesis of the actuator system in the magnetically suspended positioning mechanism is realized, and its functional sufficiency is confirmed using linear algebra. Decoupling characteristics in the Cartesian coordinate system in spite of the strong coupling in the local coordinates were shown realizable by a mechanism structural design, that leads to a simple-structured, effective positioning, vibration-free and reliable mechanism. The basic dynamic equation which allows the systematic design of the dynamic characteristics of the total system was formulated. The design method in this report attaches importance to practical applicability, conditions for practical use are taken into consideration.
