In this paper, a novel dual-type positioning mechanism using a voice coil motor(VCM) and a piezoelectric actuator is proposed for optical disk drive or near-field recording type drive. The VCM is used for a coarse motion actuator and the piezoelectric actuator, "S" configuration deflection motion when voltage applied, is used for a fine motion actuator with self-sensing technique, which allows it to sense and actuate simultaneously in a closed loop frame work. When the VCM rotates and stops, a position feedback control algorithm is adopted to further control residu vibration. The performance of the control scheme is confirmed through simulations and experiments.

The most basic form of a direct-drive linear motor is the voice coil motor(VCM). The voice coil motor employs a stationary permanent magnet field assembly in conjunction with a moving coil winding assembly to produce a force proportional to the current applied to the coil. Voice coil motor provide motion capable of extremely fine position sensitivity, limited only by the feedback sensor used to close the control loop. This paper presents dual-servo voice coil motor for improvement of driving range and position resolution. The voice coil motor is a cylindrical shape to improve reliability of a nanoindenter.

A new positioning mechanism with Parallel type actuator using piezoelectric material and with dual type actuators using voice coil motor (VCM) and piezoactuator is proposed for optical disk drive or near-field recording type drive, and high speed position and vibration control are investigated. Parallel type bimorph piezoactuator is used as a fine motion actuator with self-sensing technique, which allows a piezoelectric material to concurrently sense and actuate in a closed loop frame work, and positive position feedback control algorithm is adopted to further control residual vibration. For positioning control of VCM, PID control algorithm is adopted.

It is becoming more significant to develop a rotary voice coil motor(VCM) type's actuator for small form factor (SFF) optical disk drive(ODD), as portables are getting more and more popularized nowadays. The actuator which is applicable to small-sized ODD with a compact flash(CF) II card size was developed and fabricated. The experimental results showed that the finite element(FE) model is different from the fabricated model. And so flexible mode frequencies did not satisfy specifications of small-sized ODD, and tuning. Tuning procedures were required to improve dynamic characteristics of the fabricated actuator through finite difference method(FDM). At first, design variables were extracted through parameter study and the tuned FE model was improved by design of experiment(DOE). Consequently, It was confirmed that the improved model was applicable to SFF ODD.

In recent years, the LDM(Linear DC Motor) is widely used, because it has more merits than other rotary motors. First, if system requires linear motion, LDM realizes direct linear motion as rotary motor does not. Second, system is simple and easy to control, and so on. In optical disc drive, a tracking system consists of two parts. One is fine actuating and the other is coarse actuating. For coarse actuating VCM(Voice Coil Motor) actuator is used as a basic drive mechanism. In this paper, MC(Moving Coil) type LDM is designed, manufactured and controlled. System is composed of mechanical-electromagnetic component, therefore mechanical loss and electromagnetic loss exist. The dominent mechanical loss is friction which results from sliding between guide shaft and hole. Therefore, this paper shows the friction compensation control. High speed and accurate position is not gained only PID control, therefore other control method is applied to the system.

The actuators of anti-vibration system(AVS) can be separated into several types: piezoelectric actuators, pneumatic springs, cylinders, rotating motor and linear motor. The last one has some advantages, such as low noise, low vibration, simpler configuration and possibility of direct drive. The voice coil motor(VCM) is one type of linear motor, originally used in speaker system. VCM actuators are usually used in occasions that rapid and controlled motion of devices are required. In this paper, a controller which satisfies system specification(e.g. current controller bandwidth) within whole operation range is designed. For that objective, parameters as position were initially obtained with 3D FEM analysis and motor modeling was performed. A current controller in 2-axis VCM drive system was designed and then performance of the proposed controller was verified with simulation using Simplorer and an experimental result.

This paper proposes a swing-arm type dual-stage actuator, which consists of a PZT actuator for fine motion and a VCM(Voice Coil Motor) for coarse motion, for SFF ODD(Small Form Factor Optical Disk Drive), in order to achieve fast access speed and precise track following control. We focus our attention on the design and control of the PZT actuator, because there have been a lot of previous researches related to the VCM and dual-stage actuators. Due to the dual cantilever structure, the PZT actuator can generate precise translational tracking motion at its tip where optical pickup is attached at, and the effect of hysteric behavior of the PZT element is reduced. The dynamic model of the PZT actuator is derived by using the Hamilton's principle, and verified by comparing with the experimental frequency response. The sliding mode control is designed in order to be robust against modeling uncertainties. Simulations and experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the suggested control scheme.

Various types of latch designs for hard disk drives using load/unload mechanism have been introduced to protect undesired release motions of a voice coil motor(VCM) actuator from sudden disturbances. Recently, various inertia-type latches have been widely used because locking performance is better than that of other types of latch. However there has been a limit in the inertia type in order to guarantee perfect latch and unlatch operations because of changes in latch/unlatch conditions due to mechanical tolerance and temperature-dependent friction. In this paper, a reliable and robust magnetic latch mechanism is proposed through only simple modifications of coil and yoke shapes in order to overcome the mechanical limit of current inertia-type latches. This new magnetic latch does not have only a simple structure but it also ensures reliable operations and anti-shock performance. The operating mechanism of the proposed latch is theoretically analyzed and optimally designed using an electromagnetic simulation.
