Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The sensing mechanism of actuators is discussed in this paper. Some actuators like thermal and SMA wires actuators have a self-sensing mechanism which can be used to precisely control the displacement of actuators. The self-sensing mechanism of thermal wire actuators are detailed, analyzed and verified in this paper. Actuators cannot have a self-sensing mechanism like piezoelectric actuators since an external sensor is required in the control loop. A homodyne quadrature interferometer configuration with analog output capabilities was developed and verified on a closed-loop control of a stacked piezoelectric actuator to achieve a traceable nanometer scale precision actuating system.
