μ Control of a High Speed Spindle Thrust Magnetic Bearing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Experimental results demonstrate that μ synthesis provides an excellent tool for increasing the dynamic stiffness of thrust magnetic thrust bearings. Accurate system modeling and appropriate uncertainty descriptions are critical to obtaining such results and are described in detail. Both complex μ and mixed μ synthesis were used to design controllers. The performance of the μ controllers is compared to that of an optimized PID controller. The dynamic stiffness of the spindle's thrust axis was increased by a factor of two over that obtained with optimized PID control.

Magnetic levitation is becoming widely applicable in magnetic bearings, high-speed ground transportation, vibration isolation, etc., [1]. For example, magnetic bearings support radial and thrust loads in rotating machinery. In addition, magnetic suspension generates levitation action in rectilinear motion devices such as high-speed ground transportation systems. Magnetic levitation is immensely...
متن کاملChatter Suppression in a High Speed Magnetic Spindle by Adding Damping
Magnetic bearings are used in several applications, but they didn’t succeed in the machine tool industry, due basically to their low damping, with its associated low chatter free cutting capacity. This work shows the development of a high speed milling spindle supported on magnetic bearings with high chatter resistance. That is achieved by using control strategies which add damping to the beari...
متن کاملVibration in a Cracked Machine Tool Spindle with Magnetic Bearings
Due to manufacturing flaws or cyclic loading, cracks frequently appear in a rotating spindle system. These cracks markedly affect the dynamic characteristics in higher modes of the rotating machinery. For faster rotational speeds, especially for super-high-speed cutting, a spindle with magnetic bearings is necessary. However, most investigations into spindle system dynamic characteristics have ...

The use of magnetic bearing in industrial applications has increased due to their unique properties. Nowadays efficiency and predictability in handling rotors on magnetic bearings is asked with the same standard as conventional rotors on oil or roller bearings. First of all one must be aware of the special technical properties of magnetic bearing designs. The dynamic behaviour of the rotor comb...
