Abstract

Three-phase linear synchronous actuators play a pivotal role in precision motion control applications such as lithography machines and laser material processing stages. Achieving superior tracking performance is paramount in the design of motion control systems, prompting the utilization of advanced control algorithms. In this study, a novel approach is presented to enhance the tracking capability of a three-phase permanent magnet actuator by introducing a predictive field-oriented control system. The primary contribution of this paper lies in the comprehensive design and implementation of the predictive field-oriented control system. Initially, actuator modeling is conducted in the rotating reference frame (d–q frame) and finite element analysis is performed to determine key electrical quantities, including magnetic flux densities and inductances. To address the challenges posed by time-varying sinusoidal electrical signals, a field-oriented control methodology is proposed. Notably, the novelty of this work is underscored by a distinct emphasis on the predictive control strategy employed in the system. The predictive controller is implemented on a 32-bit ARM Cortex microcontroller, showcasing the practical viability of the proposed approach. Experimental results substantiate the effectiveness of the proposed method in achieving precise trajectory tracking. This paper contributes to the field by providing a rigorous analysis of a three-phase permanent magnet actuator and introducing a predictive field-oriented control system. The methodology outlined here enhances tracking capabilities and signifies a substantial advancement in the broader landscape of precision motion control systems. Thus, this work adds valuable insights to the existing body of knowledge in the domain, while offering a notable contribution to the field.
