Stroke patients can't use their hands because of the paralysis of their fingers. Their fingers are recovered by rehabilitating training, and the rehabilitating extent can be judged by grasping a spherical object. At present, the object used in hospital is only a spherical object, and can't measure the force of fingers. Therefore, doctors judge the rehabilitating extent by touching and watching at their fingers. So, the spherical object measuring system which can measure the force of their fingers should be developed. In this paper, the finger-force measuring system with a three-axis force sensor which can measure the spherical-object grasping force is developed. The three-axis force sensor is designed and fabricated, and the force measuring device is designed and manufactured using DSP(digital signal processing). Also, the grasping force test of men is performed using the developed finger-force measuring system, it was confirmed that the average force of men was about 120 N.

This paper presents a novel hybrid pole BLSRM (Bearingless Switched Reluctance Motor) and its radial force control scheme. The proposed hybrid pole BLSRM has separated radial force poles and rotating torque poles. According to the FEM analysis, the proposed BLSRM has an excellent linear characteristic of radial force and controllability that is independent from the torque current. The radial force can be produced by the radial force winding which is wound at the separated radial force poles. The rotating torque is produced by the excitation current of the torque windings which are wound at the torque pole. The proposed radial force control scheme is independent of the phase torque winding current. A simple PID controller and look-up table are used to maintain a constant rotor air-gap. The proposed BLSRM and its radial force control scheme are verified by FEM analysis and experimental tests.

Recent requirements for the fast and accurate motion in industrial robot manipulators need more advanced control tech-niques. To satisfy the requirements, importance of force control is being continuously increased and the expensive force sensor is usually installed to obtain the contact force information in practice. This information is indispensable for the force control of maintaining the desired contact force. However, the sensor cost is too high to be used in industrial applications. In this paper, it is proposed to estimated the contact force occurring between the end-effector of 2 DOF robots and environ-ment. The contact force estimation system is developed based on the static and dynamic models of 2 DOF robot manipula-tors. where the contact force is described with respect to the link torque. The Extended Kalman Filter is designed and its performance is verified in simulations.

Productivity and machining performance can be improved by cutting analysis including cutting force prediction, surface error prediction and machining stability evaluation. In order to perform cutting analysis, cutting force coefficients database have to be constructed. Since cutting force coefficients are dependent on cutting condition in the existing research, a large number of calibration tests are needed to obtain cutting force coefficients, which makes it difficult to build the cutting force coefficients database. This paper proposes a generalized method for constructing the cutting force coefficients database us ins cutting-condition-independent coefficients. The tool geometry and workpiece material were considered as important components for database construction. Cutting force coefficients were calculated and analyzed for various helix and rake angles as well as for several workpiece. Furthermore, the variation of cutting force coefficients according to tool wear was analyzed. Tool wear was found to affect tool geometry, which results in the change of cutting force coefficients.

This study represents the non-dimensional cutting force model. With the non-dimensional cutting force model it is possible to estimate efficiently the maximum cutting force during one revolution of cutter. Using the non-dimensional cutting force model, the feed rate and spindle speed are adjusted so as to satisfy the maximum cutting force and maximum machining error. To verify the accuracy and efficiency of the non-dimensional cutting force model, a series of experiments were conducted, and experimental results proved and verified the non-dimensional cutting force model. The NC toolpath verification system developed in this paper uses the non-dimensional cutting force model, so that it is effective for calculating the cutting force and adjusting the cutting conditions.

In this paper, an implementation of force control for a slave mobile robot in tele-operation environment is presented. A mobile robot is built to have a force control capability with a force sensor and tested for force tracking control performances. Both position and contact force are regulated by a PID based hybrid control method and the impedance force control method. To minimize accumulated errors due to the adaptive impedance force control method, the novel force control method with a weighted function is proposed. Experimental studies of regulating contact forces for different control algorithms are tested and their performances are compared.

In this paper, experimental studies of force control of the crack tracking robot are presented. The crack tracking robot should maintain constant contact with the road to perform cleaning process of the crack effectively. Regulating desired force on the road requires a sophisticated force control algorithm. Here, two main force control algorithms such as the impedance force control and the explicit force control are used. Performances of two force control algorithms are compared.
