Abstract
This paper is about the magnetic suspension stage based on the Switched Reluctance propulsion principle. Because the previous studies on contact-free stage adopted the Lorentz force for main force generation mechanism they have suffered from thermal problem deteriorating the precision. Thus, the magnetic suspension stage adopting SR principle which can achieve high force density is proposed. The main operating principle and structure for achieving high resolution and long travel range are represented. The magnetic force analysis of each actuator, providing back data for dynamic modeling and controller design are carried out. By conducting basic experiments, the feasibility of the proposed system is shown. In addition the problems which should be improved and their solutions are represented.
