Abstract
A position control approach for direct-drive robot manipulators with permanent magnet AC (PMAC) motors is proposed. The conventional vector control architecture has been simplified by specifying the motor stator phase so that the rotating d-axis current is zero. The position control is designed to be an enhanced fuzzy PD controller, by incorporating two nonlinear tracking differentiators into a conventional fuzzy PD controller. The proposed control methodology is easy to implement, and exhibits better control performance than conventional control methods. Experiments conducted on a single-link manipulator directly driven by a PMAC motor demonstrate the validity of the proposed approach.
