반도체 공정과 같은 정밀 위치제어가 요구되는 분야에서 높은 해상도와 큰 구동 거리를 가지는 정밀 스테이지의 수요가 점차 증가하고 있다. 압전 액추에이터에 의해 구동이 되는 정밀 스테이지는 이와 같은 용도에 적합한 것으로 여겨지고 있고, 이에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 압전 액추에이터로 구동하는 2축 정밀 스테이지가 연구 대상이다. 요구되는 스테이지 변위가 커서 압전 액추에이터의 변위만으로 원하는 변위를 얻을 수 없으므로, 유연힌지가 포함된 레버구조를 이용하여 최초 변위를 3 배 이상으로 확대시키는 구조로 되어있다.(중략)

According to the development of industrial equipment such as semiconductor manufacturing machines, optical device, and precision machine tool, a high-precision translation system with wide range has been required. This paper describes a high-precision 2-axis translation system, which consists of microstage and global stage. In order to achieve the highresolution in the long range, some engineering techniques are used. Three linear guides with flexible coupling are adopted to reduce the motor vibration in the global stage. A simple elastic hinge structure activated by five PZT is applied to reduce the angular dev~atlon. As the result of combination of microstage and global stage associated with some engineering techniques, the 2-axis translation system can measure the 200 X 200 mrn range with the nanometer accuracy.

The ultra precision machining in industrial field are increased day by day. The diamond turning has been used generally, but now is faced with limitation of use, because of higher requirement of production field. The electron beam lithography is alternative in machining area as semiconductor production. For EB lithography, 5 axis vacuum stage is required to duplicate small and large patterns on wafer. The stage is composed of 2 rotational axis and 3 translational axis with 5 DC servo motors. The positioning repeatability and resolution of Z axis feed unit are 3.21$\mu$m and 0.5 $\mu$m/step enough to apply to lithography.

To verify the 2D or 3D positioning accuracy of a multi-axes stage is not easy, particularly, in the case the moving path of the stage is not linear. This paper is a study on a measuring method for the curved path accurately. A machine vision technique is used to trace the moving path of two-axes stage. To improve the accuracy of machine vision, a zoom lens is used for the 2D micro moving path. The accuracy of this method depends of the CCD resolution and array align accuracy with the zoom lens system. Also, a further study for software algorithm is required to increase the tracing speed. This technique will be useful to trace a small object in the 2D micro path in real-time accurately.

Flexure joints are recently used in the ultra-precision mechanism for a telecommunication mirror stage. Flexure joints have several advantages coming from their monolithic characteristics. They can be used to reduce the size of manipulators or to increase the precision of motion. In our research, 6 dof(degree of freedom) mechanism is suggested for micrometer repeatability using a flexure mechanism. To design the 6-dof motion, the 2-dof planar mechanism are designed and assembled to make the 6-dof motion. To achieve a certain performance, it is necessary to define the performance of mechanism that quantifies the characteristics of flexure joints. This paper addresses the analysis and design of the 6-dof parallel manipulator with a flexure joint using a finite element analysis tool. To obtain experimental result, CCD laser displacement sensor is used for the total displacement and the stiffness for the 6-dof flexure mechanism.

In this study, the torsional rigidity and durability of the stabilizer models with the hollow axis of light and large sized cars were compared and investigated each other. Model 1 was applied with the moment more than three times as much as model 2, but the maximum deformation of model 1 was seen to be about 2.6 times larger than that of model 2. Commonly, models 1 and 2 are seen to get the most stress at the neck of stabilizer bar link. Also, the maximum stress of model 1 was about 2.9 times larger than that of model 2. Model 1 at large car showed more than 20 times more deformed energy than model 2 at small car. Overall, it could be examined that the deformation energy of the bracket part on the side where the moment fixing the stabilizer bar was applied was greater than that of the stabilizer. It is thought that the analysis results in this study can be helped at the design of its convergent research as a durable component of the stabilizer at a light or large sized car.

We report on the design and fabrication of an electrostatic 2-axis MEMS stage possessing a platform with a size of $5{times}5mm^2$. The stage, as a key component, would be used in developing probe-based storage devices in the future. It was fabricated by forming numerous $5{\times}5{\mu}m^2$ etching holes in the central platform, as a result, reducing the total number of masks to 1, thereby simplifying the whole fabrication process. Experimental results show that the driving range of the stage was $32{\mu}m$ at the supplied voltage of 20V and the natural frequency was approximately 300Hz. The mechanical coupling between x- and y-motion was also measured and verified to be $25\%$.
