Optimal synthesis of a wrist-type 6 degree-of-freedom force/ torque sensor using Stewart Platform Structure

The F/T sensor investigated in this study utilizes the Stewart Platform Mechanism Structure. Normally-employed 6-prismatic joints are replaced by 6-prismatic bars, which are extensible and compressible only along the axial direction of the bars. The complete analyses for the design of this kind of F/T sensor are conducted: the position analysis, the first-order and second-order kinematic analyses, and the force-deformation analysis based on the first-order kinematic characteristics of the system. Lastly, a dimensional synthesis for the F/T sensor is performed based on the kinematic isotropic index.

Modifications to improve the accuracy of a four‐ball test apparatus

The four‐ball wear test machine is one of the most widely used tribological tools in both research and industry. In general, the test geometry is self‐aligning and minimises the opportunity for random variation. Nonetheless, accurate control of the test parameters remains vital to repeatability and reproducibility. The present paper details a number of modifications to a commercially available test apparatus that have been found to improve accuracy. The applied load on some apparatus was found to vary from the correct value, probably due to frictional drag in the loading system. A feedback control loop was designed and fitted to the applied load mechanism, which resulted in significantly improved accuracy. Finally, the apparatus was fully automated, with complete computer control of all test parameters. Under this, following cleaning and assembly of the test specimens, the required test procedure could be selected from a menu of standard methods, and the computer program then adjusted the test parameters according to the method selected, greatly reducing the possibility of operator error.     

Development of nanopositioning mechanism with real-time compensation algorithm to improve the positional accuracy of a linear stage

A compensation mechanism with six degrees of freedom (DOF) was developed to enable precise control of a linear stage. Geometric, thermally induced, and dynamic errors in the linear stage were compensated for in real time by the nanopositioning stage. A stage-based hinge with high structural stiffness and rapid response characteristics was modified for parallel operation. The stage’s full range of motion was measured and kinematics was used to calculate the displacement required by each actuator to compensate for the errors. Except for the displacement error of the linear stage, the contribution of each error source was measured by a reference mirror and five capacitive sensors. A compensation algorithm, based on a recursive method, was used to improve the positioning accuracy of the system. The performance of the stage presented here was investigated by measuring, and compensating for, the five-DOF linear stage errors in real time. In practice, the peak-to-valley errors of the translational and rotational errors were reduced by 89% and 93%, respectively.
