On-line Deflection Estimation of X-axis Beam on Positioning Machine

Abstract

For high precision devices, one of the most important factors that influence their positioning accuracy is the deflection in the mechanical structures. The finite element method (FEM) is the most common method used to investigate deflections. However, it has such a high computational complexity that it cannot be used in real-time deflection correction applications. In this paper, to improve the accuracy of a positioning machine, an on-line deflection estimation method which has high accuracy and low computational complexity is proposed. Firstly, by analyzing the mechanical characteristics of the beam, the effect of the positioning head on the beam is represented by four forces located at their contact points and a deflection estimation model is developed. Then, the uncertain parameters of this estimation model are identified by the use of the deflection values obtained from the FEM analysis. The final mathematical model is seen to result in deflection values that are very close to the values obtained by FEM analysis. The applicability of this novel method is discussed and algorithms are proposed that extend the approach to other general gantry structures. Finally, the approach is successfully verified under three typical cases indicating its advantages w.r.t. estimation accuracy and decreased computational complexity.Index Terms-beam deflection, on-line estimation, structural parameter identification X.

A Conceptual Model for Joint Graphic Representation of Mechatronic Systems with Servomechanisms

“…Sometimes, 3D computer-aided design (CAD) images support attempts at explaining the servo axes motion information, using the same approach of labeling text on the 3D image, as in [20][21][22][23]. Other types of simple drawings can be also found in the research [24][25][26][27][28].…”
