This paper introduces an ultra-precision linear motor positioning technique. In order to realize a compact positioning movement without dual structure consisting coarse and fine positionings, higher accuracy air slider studies are conducted on a completely frictionless support mechanism using a linear motor and an externally pressurized air bearing. Results are as follows: (1) Temperature rise of 03°C, table displacement of 0.16μm and guide warp of 0.03μm are achieved by slider guide with adiabatic structure. (2) To reduce cogging force and normal force, coreless and slotless motor is developed. Thrust ripple has reduced to less than 2 % of the rated thrust. (3) Maximum pulse velocity of 10 Mpps, acceleration of 3M/S2, 0.2 sec for 15mm stroke are achieved. (4) Software servo system using DSP is adopted, positioning accuracy of 10nm are achieved without fine positioning.

A new type of linear motor described in this paper has some advantages compared with the usual types of motors. The attractive magnetic force between the stator (permanent magnets) and mover (armature) is diminished almost to zero. The efficiency is better because the magnetic flux leakage is very small, the size of motor is smaller and detent (force ripple) is smaller than the general motors. Therefore, we think that this motor is greatly suitable for ultra-precision positioning as an actuator. An ultra-precision positioning device using this motor and liner motion ball guide ways is newly developed. Moreover, the positioning performance is evaluated by a positioning resolution, deviational and dispersion errors. As the results of repeated step response tests, the positioning resolution is 0.3 nm, the deviational error is -0.001nm and the dispersion error (3σ) is 0.29 nm. Consequently, the positioning device achieves sub-nanometer positioning. In addition, very large rigidity can be achieved.

We have developed machining centers, equipped with damping mechanism, for precision molds, which can not only suppress vibrations during high-acceleration driving of the machine but also perform high-precision and high-efficiency machining in micro regions. We have also achieved automatic exchanges of tools by employing ultrafast rotating main shafts with air hydrostatic bearings and automatic shrinkage fitting methods, as well as we have realized automated operations of the machine by integrating work with tool-measuring system.
