Abstract
This paper presents a method to suppress the thrust disturbance for the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM), which is used as an actuator in an active vibration absorber. Because the characteristics of the working transmission structure of the PMLSM are relatively special, the thrust ripple and load disturbance will yield in the operation, and they will directly affect the control accuracy and positioning precision. Simultaneously, the thrust of the PMLSM directly acts on the object, and the thrust disturbance of the PMLSM will appear in the payload of the vibration absorber. Based on the actuator, the Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control is investigated, and the transfer function of the actuator is obtained. Then, the thrust disturbance of the PMLSM is theoretical studied by analyzing the current flows through the PMLSM. A new method of trajectory overlay planning is presented, where the original input is divided into two inputs with different amplitudes and they suppress each other. Based on the method, the PID control can restrain the disturbance to achieve a predesigned output. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experimental results.
