Thrust Control of Linear Switched Reluctance Motor in Precision Applications

Abstract

Linear motors are among the electric machines in which power and linear movement are produced without any mechanical intermediary and directly with the effect of electromagnetic field. Today, among electric drives in manufacturing industries, switched reluctance motors are widely considered due to their lower cost. These motors are one of the most suitable choices for motion control applications with high speed and accuracy. In this research, the goal is to control the linear switched reluctance motor in precise applications. The used model not only reduces the maintenance costs of the collection but also reduces the noise of the entire industry compared to the normal state. First, we control the linear switched reluctance motor with the conventional DTC method, then we improved the desired solution with the fuzzy logic.
