It is our pleasure to welcome you to IEEE ICM 2011 and the beautiful city of Istanbul! This biennial conference chain was started and sponsored by IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, to support its strong vision of mechatronics, and belief in this evolutionary field in dictating tomorrow's industrial design and manufacturing techniques. Thanks to researchers like you, high performance, high reliability...
There are approximately 38,000 traffic fatalities in the U.S. every year. Technologies being developed by researchers to improve vehicle safety include electronic stability control systems, active rollover prevention, collision avoidance, lane departure avoidance, and cooperative vehicle control. Many of these technologies require addressing significant challenges in sensing and estimation. The first...
This paper presents a force distribution measurement system to investigate dexterous manipulation of hand. The purpose of this measurement is to find good shape designs not away from the hand easily when the object is dexterously manipulated by hand. To do this, it is necessary to examine the force distribution generating on a contact point between the hand and the object. We have developed the measurement...
Complexity is a central challenge in the design of modern mechatronic products, therefore its control and management in product development process is of major importance. Different domains and complex interrelationships in the process of product development together with the analysis of the system structural behaviour, until now, have not received adequate attention. In this paper, by classifying...
We have previously shown that microparts can be fed along an asymmetric microfabricated surface using simple planar symmetric vibrations. Microparts move forward because they adhere to the microfabricated surface asymmetrically. We have also described the effects of sawtoothed surfaces on the movement of submillimeter microparts; for example, 0603 (size, 0.6 × 0.6 × 0.3 mm; weight, 0.3 mg) and 0402...
In this study, an active vibration control on a CNC lathe machine by the use of a stack piezoelectric actuator is accomplished. In the implementation of piezoelectric actuators, dSpace 1104 Control Card is used as the control unit. By using the acceleration feedback signals measured on the cutting tool, the control signal being out-of-phase with the acceleration measurements is applied to the piezo...
The objective of this paper is to present a new zero-power controller design scheme by means of a transfer function approach for a voltage excited 4-pole hybrid electromagnet. Furthermore, Manabe's canonical form is integrated into determining process of the gains of controller polynomials. Accordingly, validity of the proposed approach is verified through numerical and experimental studies over an...
A model with three degrees of freedom is proposed as a means for controlling for controlling micro vibrations in semiconductor manufacturing. The model was derived from an assumption based on small and low frequency vibrations. The coordinates of the 3 DOF was composed of a vertical position, pitch, roll and a proof term. The coordinates of the 4 variables can be calculated from the 4 positions in...
Inspecting the machined-product shape demands accurate measurement of a large number of measurement points, such that the actual shape may be fully characterised. Basically, the measurement points are generated manually by the operator by inspecting the machined-product model. However, for high variety low mass production, the generation of the measurement points needs to be done automatically to...
This work attempts to achieve precise motion control using parallel robots with manufacturing tolerances and inaccuracies by migrating the measurements from their joint space to task space in order to decrease control system's sensitivity to any kinematical uncertainty rather than calibrating the parallel plant. The problem of dynamical model uncertainties and its effect on the derivation of the control...
This paper focuses on a direct command generation technique for Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machine systems. In this paradigm, higher-order differences of a given trajectory (i.e, position) are computed and the resulting data are compacted via data compression techniques. As a part of the command generation scheme, the paper also introduces a new data compression technique titled ΔY10. Apart...
