A Novel Trans-Scale Precision Positioning Stage Based on the Stick-Slip Effect

Abstract

This article focuses on developing a novel trans-scale precision positioning stage based on the stick-slip effect. The stick-slip effect is introduced and the rigid kinematics model of the stick-slip driving is established. The forward and return displacement equations of each step of the stick-slip driving are deduced. The relationship of return displacement and the acceleration produced by friction are obtained according to displacement equations. Combining with LuGre friction model, the flexible dynamics model of the stick-slip driving is established and simulated by using Simulink software. Simulation results show that the backward displacement will reduce with the acceleration of the slider produced by dynamic friction force, the rigid kinematics model is also verified by simulation results which are explained in further detail in the article.
