Feedback Control of a Two-Degree-of-Freedom Electromagnetic Reluctance Precision Motion System

IROS 2025

This study investigates a novel Xθ actuation system driven by a reluctance actuator (RA) and two accompanying moving magnet actuators (MMAs). The system enables precise control of both translational (x) and rotational (θ) motion, offering a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) solution for high-precision ap

Analysis of the Effect of Clearance in Spherical Joints on the Rotation Accuracy of Parallel Type Micro-Robotic Systems

IROS 2021poster

The spherical joint is an effective solution to design parallel micro-robotic systems with rotation capabilities in the three-dimensional space. This type of joint has however some non-linear characteristics, such as the clearance, which affect the positioning accuracy in micro-robotic tasks. The st…
