Abstract
The paper aims to develop a novel piezoelectric motor and its controller; here the motor shaft needs to be rotated fully by 360° using two sets of Parallelly Prestressed Actuators (PPA) and one set of lock release actuators (LR). The first set of PPA drives the driving element and produces a displacement of 39 µm for an applied input voltage of 150 V & rotates by an angle of 0.145°, thus taking 2483 steps to complete one complete rotation. The second set of PPA is deployed to transfer the rotation caused by the first set of PPA to the output shaft. The lock release actuator will arrest the rotation that occurred and avoids the shaft from moving back to its original position till the next cycle begins. The above set of operations is continued to obtain continuous rotation of the piezoelectric motor shaft. There is a FAP used to hold the shaft during the power-off condition. The mathematical controller is developed to obtain both forward and reverse rotation of the shaft by applying an input voltage, further the developed model is simulated using MATLAB Simulink software to illustrate the working of a piezoelectric motor.
