  • A study on the manufacturing of High Precision Linear Scalr using He-Ne Laser interference Of late, along with the advancement of precision machining technology, the requirement of super precision measurement increases as time goes on, and the accuracy of standard scale which is a basis of precision measurement has been cognized as a criterion of industrial development in a nationl. In this paper, we described on technology by which we could carve scale lines thru optical method under the condition of laboratory by using the coherence of He-Ne two-mode stabilized laser and in turn, put it to practical use as linear scale for the measurement of length. Hence in this research in the case of setting scale interval to 20 ${\mu}m$, we employed super precision scale-carving device associated with Ar laser and acousto optic modulator in lieu of flashing lamp scale-carving device, and we obtained as experimental result superior linear scales carved within the accuracy of ${\pm}$0.3${\mu}m$.

  • This paper presents the structural design and finite element analysis of precision stage based on a double triangular parallel mechanism for precision positioning and large force generation. Recently, with the acceleration of miniaturization in mobile appliances, the demand for precision aligning and bonding has been increasing. Such processes require both high precision and large force generation, which are difficult to obtain simultaneously. This study aimed at constructing a precision stage that has high precision, long stroke, and large force generation. Actuators were tactically placed and flexure hinges were carefully designed by optimization process to constitute a parallel mechanism with a double triangular configuration. The three actuators in the inner triangle function as an in-plane positioner, whereas the three actuators in the outer triangle as an out-of-plane positioner. Finite element analysis is performed to validate load carrying performances of the developed precision stage.

  • In this paper, a new field of metrology called 'precision nanometrology' is presented. The 'precision nanometrology' is the result of evolutions of the traditional 'precision metrology' and the new 'nanometrology'. 'Precision nanometrology' is defined here as the science of dimensional measurement and motion measurement with 100 nm to 0.1 nm resolution/uncertainty within a range of micrometer to meter. The definition is based on the fact that nanometrology in nanoengineering and the precision industries, such as semiconductor industry, precision machine tool industry, precision instrument industry, is not only concerned with the measurement resolution and/or uncertainty but also the range of measurement. It should also be pointed out that most of the measurement objects in nanoengineering have dimensions larger than 1 micrometer. After explaining the definition of precision nanometrology, the paper provides several examples showing the critical roles of precision nanometrology in precision nanosystems, including nanometrology system, nanofabrication system, and nanomechatronics system.

  • Linear ball guideways have been used recently in precision or ultra-precision positioning devices. However, when the inner balls begin to roll or the moving direction reverses, these guideways are subject to rolling friction or nonlinear spring behavior. An ultra-precision device with a linear motor, referred to as a 'tunnel actuator' (TA), has been constructed to measure these phenomena. The application of a TA is beneficial for two reasons: it mostly cancels the attractive magnetic force between the stator and mover (armature), and its magnetic flux leakage is very low. The influence of the nonlinear spring behavior in ball guideways was investigated in this study using the pure driving force from a TA. The equilibrium between the driving force from the TA and the nonlinear spring force provided great accuracy for a positioning stage using a linear ball guideway.
