Abstract:
For large bearing capacity and low current consumption of the magnetic suspension platform, a 2-DOF electromagnetic actuator with a new structure of halbach array is proposed to improve driving force coefficients. The structure and the working principle are introduced. An accurate sub domain model of the new structure is established to accurately and rapidly calculate the magnetic field distribution for obtaining the parameters and performance of the electromagnetic actuators. The analytical model results are verified by the finite element method. The force/torque model of the magnetic suspension platform is established based on the proposed 2-DOF electromagnetic actuator. Three position-sensitive detectors and six accelerometers are applied to perceive in real time the posture and vibration acceleration of the platform, respectively. Their hardware information is introduced and measurement models are established based on the layout. Finally, the electromagnetic characteristics of the proposed actuator are investigated and compared with the conventional counterpart by finite element analysis. The results show that the average magnetic field, 0.432 T, horizontal and vertical force coefficient, 92.3 N/A and 30.95 N/A, and torque in x and z direction, 3.61 N·m and 8.49 N·m, of the proposed actuator are larger than those of the conventional one.
