In the modem manufacturing system, to achieve the unmanned automation, the stability of accuracy is required through a long working period. The thermal deformation of precision machine is predominant in this long time stability. While grinding slender and long workpiece at cylindrical grinding machine, we support workpiece using steadies to prevent the vibration of workpiece. The thermal deformation of the machine by grinding and internal heat source cause processing errors, so the steadies for compensating the thermal deformation in real time are strongly needed. In order to compensate these thermal deformation and grinding processing errors, the device to determine the precise positioning having the stroke of 10.mu.m is necessary. This paper suggests design and make the device to determine the precise positioning using thermoelectric device, to investigate the control characteristics and presents the heat actuator will be very useful in machine tool.

This paper describes the testing and experimental characterization of a linear permanent magnet actuator, which is designed and developed for active vehicle suspension, under both static and dynamic conditions. Since the active suspension unit operates over a wide force-velocity range with varying duty ratios, it is essential to establish an effective thermal model which can be used for assessing temperature rise of the actuator under various operating conditions. The temperature rise of the actuator is measured and the results are compared with the prediction by the derived transient thermal model. It is shown that the measured actuator parameters and characteristics are closed to their predicted values. The linear actuator is controlled by a dSPACE system via a three phase inverter and its velocity tracking performance is presented.

A new thermal bimorph actuator for large out-of-plane displacement is designed, fabricated and tested. The deflecting beam is composed of polyimide, heater, and polyvinyl difluorides with tetrafluoroethylene (PVDF-TrFE). The large difference of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of two polymer layers (polyimide and PVDF-TrFE) can generate a significant deflection with relatively small temperature rise. Compared to the most conventional micro actuators based on MEMS (micro-electro mechanical system) technology, a large displacement, over 1 mm at 20 mW, could be achieved. Additionally, we can achieve response time of 14.6 ms, resonance frequency of 12 Hz, and reliability ability of $10^5$ cycles. The proposed actuator can find applications where a large vertical displacement is needed while maintaining compact overall device size, such as a micro zooming lens, micro mirror, micro valve and optical application.

The vibration damping of structure is increased by thermal actuator. The thermal actuator causes thermal stress across the section of structure. The several kinds of control theories are proposed and the proposed control theories are successful in increasing vibration damping. This scheme can be effectively applied to large space structure [LSS] having very low natural frequencies.

A new type actuator has been designed and investigated to overcome thermal problems in slim optical disc drives adopted in mobile storage devices. As the size of optical disc drives decreases, it is more difficult to remove the heat inside a drive and the temperature of an actuator increases. As a result, the second resonance of an actuator moves down to a lower frequency band and the performance of optical parts also deteriorates. (omitted)

Recently, in optical storage device technical trends, the size of optical drive is slimmer to adopt notebook computer and the power of actuator is higher to achieve the high transfer rate. However, these trends of optical disc drives tend to increase the temperature of the actuator part, it causes some problems on the performance of optical parts - the resonance frequency of the actuator is down to lower band and the objective lens, coil and magnet are easily damaged. In this study, to overcome these thermal problems, the numerical simulations of heat transfer were performed. As the result of simulations, the thermal characteristic of the hybrid actuator is better than the previous design. And, it shows the good dynamic performance in experiment.
