Shape Memory Alloy Actuator Controller Design for Tactile Displays
This paper describes the design of a controller for a tactile shape display for dexterous telemanipulation applications. This device consists of an array of pin elements which rest against the human finger tip. Shape memory alloy (SMA) wire actuators raise individual pins to approximate the desired surface shape on the skin. To overcome the slow response times of SMA actuators we have implement...
متن کاملA bidirectional shape memory alloy folding actuator
This paper presents a low-profile bidirectional folding actuator based on annealed shape memory alloy sheets applicable for mesoand microscale systems. Despite the advantages of shape memory alloys—high strain, silent operation, and mechanical simplicity—their application is often limited to unidirectional operation. We present a bidirectional folding actuator that produces two opposing 180 mot...
متن کاملExperimental Hysteresis Identification and Micro-position Control of a Shape-Memory-Alloy Rod Actuator
In order to exhaustively exploit the high-level capabilities of shape memory alloys (SMAs), they must be applied in control systems applications. However, because of their hysteretic inherent, dilatory response, and nonlinear behavior, scientists are thwarted in their attempt to design controllers for actuators of such kind. The current study aims at developing a micro-position control system ...
متن کاملController for a high strain shape memory alloy actuator: quenching of limit cycles
Further development of a three level switching controller [3] is presented. The controller was originally designed to drive a novel Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuator consisting of a number of thin NiTi bers woven in a counter rotating helical pattern around supporting disks. While the original controller performed satisfactorily, it was hampered by the presence of limit cycles at higher gains. ...
متن کاملOptimal Design of a Shape Memory Alloy Actuator for Microgrippers
In this paper, a modular microactuator based on shape memory alloy (SMA) actuation to drive the joints of a microgripper is described. Its design is a combination of two SMA actuators installed on the links of a special mechanism : one of them drives the rotation of the joint and the other one produces the necessary force to manipulate objects. An accurate model of the thermo-mechanical behavio...
