Abstract
Abstract. In order to meet the application requirements of
fast-moving, accurate positioning, and low cost, a new type of pneumatic
electric hybrid actuator was developed with a positioning accuracy of
0.01 mm. It was found that the velocity fluctuation would occur in the
process of driving switching due to the “stop then restart” strategy, resulting in stumbling when positioning. To solve this problem, the basic characteristics of the drive switching mechanism were tested and analyzed. A driving switching strategy called “relay and run” was proposed based on the response characteristics of the locking mechanism in the braking stage and the starting characteristics of the motor. The uniform acceleration was controlled by the motor drive to compensate for the velocity loss so that the overall velocity was slowly reduced. The control model was established, and the experiments were conducted. The results showed that the relay and run switching strategy can eliminate the velocity fluctuation caused by the stop then restart strategy.
