An experimental observation of uncoupling of multi-DOF PZT actuators in a compliant mechanism
نویسندگان
چکیده
The control of a dynamic system with multiple degreesof-freedom (DOF) is far simpler if the system is uncoupled. The property of an uncoupled system can be achieved with careful design of mechanical structures in the case of conventional mechanisms. The study reported in this paper will show via experiment the uncoupling property in a compliant mechanism, which is driven by three PZT actuators. This observation has the significance to motivate study on a new methodology for designing uncoupled multi DOF compliant mechanisms.

Design of Novel 3-dof Nano Precision Stage
INSTRUCTIONS Precision nano-positioning techniques have become very important for biomedical science, optics and microscopy. PZT and flexure compliant mechanisms are widely used in these various fields and applications within these fields. Compliant mechanisms are flexible structures, which can generate the desired motions by undergoing elastic deformation instead of through rigid linkage/joint...

متن کاملA structure design method for compliant parallel manipulators with actuation isolation
Since precise linear actuators of a compliant parallel manipulator suffer from their inability to tolerate the transverse motion/load in the multi-axis motion, actuation isolation should be considered in the compliant manipulator design to eliminate the transverse motion at the point of actuation. This paper presents an effective design method for constructing compliant parallel manipulators wi...
