Abstract
The objective of the present study is to handle the optimum design of PMs excited TFLMs to transfer for high speed and heavy-load robots which transfer LCD glass panels to maximize thrust force and to minimize attraction force, thrust force ripple ratio, and attraction force ripple ratio. The predicted performance of the optimized TFLM is in accord with the 3-D FEM results. The static thrust force by test is performed to compare simulation results. The estimated error is within 4.1%, and the developed prototype is operated for 3 m/s by synchronous control driver to control both 4,000 N class TFLMs. Experimental validation is successfully performed to verify the design and analysis by optimum design.
