“…And then they built an EMASVI model with 3 degrees of freedom, including a vertical displacement, an inclination angle, and a rotating angle and carried out a shock experiment. 7 The result of experiment indicated that stabilization time of this model reduced to 25% compared to that of the model with 1 degree of freedom. Electromagnetic actuator was installed around air spring in another paper about EMASVI.…”

In order to isolate the structural vibration in high-frequency range effectively and constrain the peak response value near the natural frequency, an experience method using electromagnetic-air spring vibration isolator was put forward based on the respective advantages of electromagnetic actuator and air spring. In this article, a stiffness expression and a natural frequency of the system was worked out. A dynamic model of the electromagnetic-air spring vibration isolator system and an expression of the force transmission were established. Moreover, the relationship between stiffness variation and performance of the electromagnetic-air spring vibration isolator system was analyzed. The calculation and simulation analysis of the example demonstrated that in the condition of satisfying loading capacity with the increase in magnetic suspension isolator's displacement stiffness and the decrease in air spring's stiffness, the performance of vibration isolation is improved.

“…Nonetheless, it is not sufficient to generate a control force to reduce the unwanted vibrations that occur in large-sized precision manufacturing machines with high-speed motion. Another potential candidate for vibration control of plane motions in precision manufacturing machinery is the use of electromagnetics (EM) actuators, which can have several configurations such as serial connection [8]. However, it is very difficult to satisfy the vibration criteria using piezoelectric or EM actuators because these actuators cannot generate sufficient power for controlling large magnitudes of the vibration, even though their response to the external input is fast.…”

In a previous work, magneto-rheological (MR) dampers were originally designed and implemented for reducing the vertical low-frequency vibration occurring in precise semi-conductor manufacturing equipment. To reduce the vibrations, an isolator levitated the manufacturing machine from the floor using pneumatic pressure which cut off the external vibration, while the MR damper was used to decrease the transient response of the isolator. However, it has been found that the MR damper also provides a damping effect on the lateral vibration induced by the high-speed plane motions. Therefore, in this work both vertical and lateral vibrations are controlled using the yield and shear stresses of the lateral directions generated from the MR fluids by applying a magnetic field. After deriving a vibration control model, an overall control logic is formulated considering both vertical and lateral vibrations. In this control strategy, a feedback loop associated with the laser sensor is used for vertical vibration control, while a feed-forward loop with the motion information is used for lateral vibration control. The experimental results show that the proposed concept is highly effective for lateral vibration control using the damping effect on multiple directions.

“…The air mount must satisfy the vibration criteria of the floor vibration, and should also absorb the machine vibration quickly. We have been developing air mounts based on pneumatic and EM forces for precision machines in clean rooms [12,13]. The air mount is a kind of active air spring in which EM actuators are present within a pneumatic system.…”

With the goal of vibration control and isolation in a clean room, we propose a new type of air mount which consists of pneumatic, electromagnetic (EM), and magnetorheological (MR) actuators. The air mount is installed below a semiconductor manufacturing machine to reduce the adverse effects caused by unwanted vibration. The proposed mechanism integrates the forces in a parallel connection of the three actuators. The MR part is designed to operate in an air spring in which the EM part is installed. The control logic is developed with a classical method and a switching mode to avoid operational mismatch among the forces developed. Based on extended microprocessors, a portable, embedded controller is installed to execute both nonlinear logic and digital communication with the peripherals. The pneumatic forces constantly support the heavy weight of an upper structure and maintain the level of the air mount. The MR damper handles the transient response, while the EM controller reduces the resonance response, which is switched mutually with a threshold. Vibration is detected by laser displacement sensors which have submicron resolution. The impact test results of three tons load weight demonstrate practical feasibility by showing that the proposed triple-actuating mechanism can reduce the transient response as well as the resonance in the air mount, resulting in accurate motion of the semiconductor manufacturing machine.
