Abstract
It is difficult to obtain linear output displacements for stepping piezoelectric platform due to their discontinuous outputs. Inspired by the theory that the maximum static friction force is greater than the sliding friction force, in this letter, we propose a bipedal alternating inertial actuation mode (BAIAM) to improve the displacement linearity of the stepping platform. The output displacements are measured, the linear fitting is carried out by the least square method, the correlation coefficient and linear fitting function are used to evaluate the displacement linearity, and the correlation coefficients of the forward and backward motions are calculated as 0.9998 and 0.9999 in BAIAM, respectively, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed method. The closed-loop experiments in BAIAM are also carried out, and the steady-state errors for the target position of ±40 <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">μ</i> m within ±0.2 <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">μ</i> m in the point-to-point positioning control experiments are achieved. The experimental results confirm that the developed platform can be applied to precision fields requiring a large travel range, planar two-degree-of-freedom motion, and linear outputs.
