In order to ensure good dynamic characteristics, servo valve is usually adopted as the drive part of Stewart manipulator which causes huge power consumption, while direct drive electro-hydraulic servo system has the advantages of energy saving, simple structure, convenient installation, and low failure rate. But its dynamic characteristics are so poor that it can only be applied to occasions where quick response is not needed. On the consideration above, following works are done in this paper. Since current coupling exists in the control system based on the speed of the servo motor as the control input, the control system of the direct drive Stewart manipulator is established based on the current of the servo motor as the control input in which the current coupling can be solved. In order to improve the dynamic characteristics of the direct drive Stewart manipulator, a Proportion Differentiation (PD) plus dynamic pressure feedback control strategy is also put forward in this paper, which is verified by using a simulated hydraulically driven Stewart manipulator. Simulation results show that both dynamic coupling and current coupling are solved and the control strategy proposed in this paper can significantly increase the bandwidths of all degrees of freedom.
