The multi-degree-of-freedom high-precision positioning system (MHPS) is one of the key technologies in many advanced industrial applications. In this paper, a novel hyperbolic magnetic field voice coil actuator using a rhombus magnet array (HMF-VCA) for MHPS is proposed. Benefiting from the especially designed rhombus magnet array, the proposed HMF-VCA has the advantage of excellent force uniformity, which makes it suitable for multi-degree-of-freedom high-precision positioning applications. First, the basic structure and operation principles of the HMF-VCA are presented. Second, the six-degree-of-freedom force and torque characteristic of the HMF-VCA is studied by three-dimensional finite element analysis (3-D FEA). Third, the influence of structural parameters on force density and force uniformity is investigated, which is conducive to the design and optimization of the HMF-VCA. Finally, a prototype is constructed, and the comparison between the HMF-VCA and conventional VCAs proves the advantage of the proposed topology.

In this paper, we describe a flat-type vertical-gap passive magnetic levitation vibration isolator (FVPMLVI) for active vibration isolation system (AVIS). A dual-stator scheme and a special stator magnet array are adopted in the proposed FVPMLVI, which has the effect of decreasing its natural frequency, and this enhances the vibration isolation capability of the FVPMLVI. The structure, operating principle, analytical model, and electromagnetic and mechanical characteristics of the FVPMLVI are investigated. The relationship between the force characteristics (levitation force, horizontal force, force ripple, and force density) and major structural parameters (width and thickness of stator and mover magnets) is analyzed by finite element method. The experiment result is in good agreement with the theoretical analysis.

This paper introduced the working principle of magnetic levitation rail machine and carried out the magnetic analysis. Take the weight of 132N simulation workbench prototype for example, finite element analysis of rail electromagnetic fields is applied through ANSYS software to find out the variation law of magnetic field distribution and affecting factors. Analysis shows that magnetic levitation rail machine has small leakage magnetic field, high load capacity and large anti-external disturbances capacity if the parallelism and the straightness of magnetic levitation rail machine are no more than 0.1mm and 0.2mm respectively when the table is suspended normally. The research results provides theoretical basis for structural optimization of the magnetic levitation rail machine.

This paper proposes a novel layered permanent magnet motor (N-LPM), which is based on a three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) permanent magnet motor. Compared with the former, the improved N-LPM air gap magnetic density, torque and structure stability have been significantly improved. The proposed N-LPM has three layers of stator along the axis direction, and each layer of stator has three-phase winding. In order to calculate the magnetic field and torque distribution of the N-LPM, an analytical method (AM) is proposed. For performance verification and accurate calculation, finite-element analysis (FEA) is adopted. The two kinds of motors before and after the improvement are compared, and their magnetic field, torque and stability are analyzed. The optimization rate is defined to evaluate the performance of the motor before and after improvement. The results show that the radial flux density, rotation torque, deflection torque and the volume optimization rate of the permanent magnet of the improved motor are 80%, 25%, 50% and 54.72% respectively, and the comprehensive performance is improved significantly.

The paper presents the model and design of a flexure-based precise 4 DOF degree of freedom positioning system for micro-positioning uses. The positioning system is featured with monolithic architecture, flexure-based joints and ultra-fine adjustment screws. The mathematical model for the output displacements of the positioning system has been verified by finite element analysis (FEA).

Magnetic levitation is an appropriate solution for noncontact 3D manipulation. Workspace of the previously proposed maglev systems are confined to a relatively small cube, and this severely limits application of this technology. In addition, most of the previously given mechanisms require design and application of a subsystem for unifying their magnetic field. In this paper, a moving magnet is implemented which results in horizontally extendable work space; moreover, the field unifying section is not needed since one electromagnet only is used. Further, details of the mechanism and finite element based design procedure of the magnet are presented. Dynamic equations of the system derived by finite element analysis of the magnetic field are highly nonlinear and non-affine with respect to the control input. Two decoupled Fuzzy logic based controllers are used to deal with the 3D manipulation of the ball. The designed controllers provide the system with the precise trajectory tracking capability and robust stability. Simulation results confirm the findings.
