Abstract

This study proposes a systematic approach for the design and control of a novel ball screw transmission system. We investigated the structure of the system, performed kinematic analysis, and conducted dimensional synthesis by optimization. The mathematical model of the system was determined by system identification and a refined PID controller was designed. Computer simulation was conducted to verify the feasibility of the proposed design. A prototype machine and an experimental setup were built and tested. The experimental results show that the output with the controller agrees well with the required output. Therefore, the proposed design can produce the expected output with high accuracy.
