This work proposes a model-free robust control for cable-driven manipulators with
disturbance. To achieve accurate, singularity-free and fast dynamical control performance …

Continued great efforts have been dedicated toward high-quality trajectory generation
based on optimization methods; however, most of them do not suitably and effectively …

Tray indexing driven by a timing-belt actuator is commonly used in the manufacturing
industry, in situations where precise and fast reference tracking is required to ensure product …

This article proposes a global iterative sliding mode control approach for high-precision
contouring tasks of a flexure-linked biaxial gantry system. For such high-precision …

In this work, the design of a novel the flexure-linked dual-drive H-gantry is first introduced.
Compared to conventional stacked XY tables, the advantages of this gantry are on …

There is an increasing trend to apply integrated mechatronic design approaches in precision
engineering to synthesize key mechanical and controller parameters simultaneously …

The dual-drive H-gantry is widely used for high-speed, high-precision Cartesian motion.
Compared with the conventional rigid-linked design, the flexure-linked counterpart is able to …

Ultrasonic motors (USMs) are widely used in many applications where precise and fast
motions are required, such as precision machines and medical devices, etc. In this paper, an …

Mechatronic and robotic systems are increasingly used in the health care and medical
industry in recent years. Once the surgery is shifted from operating room to clinic or …

Bandwidth is a critical specification for motion positioning systems because fast response to
reference and broad-band disturbance rejection is highly desirable in industrial applications …
