  • The objective of this research work is to investigate into effects of an auto tracking of the focal distance on the quality of the cut part in the cutting of a low carbon sheet using a high-power CW Nd:YAG laser. An auto-tracking system with a capacitance based distance control loop has been employed to perform a real control of the focal distance. In order to examine the influence of the auto-tracking of a focal distance on the optimum focal distance, the kerfwidth, surface roughness and the formation of the cut section, several linear cutting tests have been carried out using the auto-tracking system. The results of experiments have been shown that the optimum focal distance is 0.9mm. In addition, it has been shown that the variation of kerfwidth and the surface roughness of the cut part with control of the focal distance are reduced 40-80% and 30-55% in comparison with those of the cut part without tracking of the focal distance. From the results of the experiments, it has been found that the real time tracking of the focal distance can improve the part quality.

  • In this paper, an auto path generation and an active compliance grinding control using 3-axis farce sensor are presented. These control algorithms enable the grinding robot to follow unknown path of various workpiece shape pattern. The robot is able to go grinding along unknown paths by position controller managing tangential direction angle and cutting speed, with only information about the start position and the end position. Magnitude and direction of normal force are calculated using force data that go through low pass filter. Moreover, normal and tangential directions are separated for force control and velocity control, respectively.

  • Purpose of this study was a development of a sprayer arm auto control system that could be operated according to distance from pear trees for automation of pest control. Auto control system included two parts, hardware and software. First, controller was made with an MCU and relay switches. Two types of ultra-sonic sensors were installed to measure distance from pear trees: one on/off type that detect up to 3 m, and the other continuous type providing 0~5 V output corresponding to distance of 0~3 m. Second, an auto control algorithm was developed to control. Each spraying arm was controlled according to the sensor-based distance from the pear trees. And it could dodge obstacles to protect itself. Max and min signal values were eliminated, when five sensor signals was collected, and then signals were averaged to reduce sensor's noises. According to results of field experiment, auto control test result was better than non auto control test result. Spraying rates were 69.25% (left line) and 98.09% (right line) under non auto control mode, because pear trees were not planted uniformly. But, auto control test's results were 92.66% (left line) and 94.64% (right line). Spraying rate was increased by maintaining distance from tree.

  • An easy elevator for learning originated is opened to compare the existed learning equipment, and it had a high studying efficient that the sequence control circuit can opens and closes with the wire. The structure of equipment to be controlled from the first floor to the fifth floors is demonstrated a constructive apparatus by a lamp atc to express the function of the open-close of the door according to the cage moving with a mechanical actuation of the forward-reverse breaker and the motor of load and a mechanical actuation of hand-operation control components of push-button S/W and L/S and relay etc. These components let connects each other in order to control of the elevator function with the auto program and the designed sequence control circuit. Consequent1y the process of these functions of 1~5steps could operates the cage with an auto program of the elevator and the sequence control circuit. The sequence control circuit is controlled by the step of forward and reverse to follow as that the sensor function of the L/S1~L/S5 let posit with the control switchs of S/W1~S/W5 of PLC testing panel and switchs of S/W1~S/W5 installed on the transparent acryl plate of the frame. In here, improved apparatus is a hand-auto operation combined learning equipment to study the principle and a technique of the originated sequence control circuit and the auto program of PLC.

  • This paper proposes the hybrid fuzzy control system for fast response time and precision control of auto-equipment which exist disturbance, parameter alteration of system, uncertainty. The purposed system, which provides the improvement in terms of the control region in high speed and precision control, first used the fuzzy control method for fast response time and when the error reaches the preset value, used the frequency-locked method for precision control. The theoretical and experimental studies have been carried out. The presented results from the above investigation show considerably improved performance in the position control of auto-equipment.

  • The high vacuum in a electron beam lithography is basic condition, because electron beam vanish by collision with air molecules in generally atmosphere. To make high vacuum state, the vacuum control valve is essential. Most vacuum control valve are manual units. So, user of manual vacuum valve must have understanding vacuum process to change from low vacuum to high vacuum state. The user of electron beam lithography are troubled with operation of manual vacuum valve, in case the vacuum chamber is frequently open. In this paper, the design and performance test of auto vacuum control valve for electron beam lithography are described. With the auto vacuum control valve, the high vacuum level can reach 2.8E-5 Torr.

  • In this paper, we propose a method which control parametric uncertainty systems using PID controller by fuzzy auto tuning. We get the error and the error change rate of plant output correspond to the initial value of parameter using the Ziegler-Nickols tuning and determine the new proportional gain$(K_p)$ and the integral time $(T_i)$ from fuzzy tuner by the error and error change rate of plant output as a membership function of fuzzy theory. The Fuzzy Auto-tuning algorithm for PID controller operate to adapt variable parameter of plant in parametric uncertainty systems. It is shown this method considerably improve the transient response at computer simulation.
