Abstract

This research aims to develop core technologies for passive carrier (no power in carrier itself) transfer system. The technologies are passive levitation, propulsion, and guidance, which can be great benefits for semiconductor and display manufacturing industries. Passive maglev carrier is necessary to precise position control for quiet and stable transfer operation. However, the structural characteristics of carrier and the installation errors of gap sensors cause the pitch motion. Hence, the controller design in consideration of pitch motion is required. This study deals with the reduction control of carrier pitch motion. PDA controller and PDA controller with pitch control are proposed to compare the pitch angle analysis. The pitch angle and the levitation precision are measured by experiment. Finally, the optimized design of pitch controller is presented and the effects are discussed.

자기부상 수동형 이송 시스템이란 이송자에 부상, 안내, 추진과 관련된 전원장치가 없어 고청정, 무분진이 요구되는 환경에서 사용 가능한 시스템으로써 대면적 디스플레이 공정산업, 반도체 이송장비 등에 활용가능하다. 이 시스템은 이송 대상물의 안정적 운반을 위하여 이송자의 정밀한 자세 제어가 필요하다. 하지만 이송자의 구조적 특징 및 공극 센서 설치 오차에 의해 이송자의 피치운동이 발생하며 이를 해결하기 위한 제어기 설계가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 자기부상 수동형 이송 시스템의 이송자 피치 운동을 감소시키는 제어에 목적이 있다. 이를 수행하기 위하여 해석적으로는 PDA 제어 모델과 피치제어를 추가한 제어 모델의 피치 각도를 비교한다. 실험적으로는 제어기 변경이 이송자의 피치 각도 및 부상 정밀도에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 이러한 제어기 설계 변경이 피치 운동에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 부상 정밀도 향상을 위한 방법을 제시한다.
