Magnetic levitation stages, in particular, control a floating top plate with six degrees of freedom without mechanical coupling. Consequently, the in-position stability performance of magnetic levitation stages is crucial, as it determines the overall stage performance and regulates manufacturing efficiency. Traditionally, efforts to enhance stability have primarily focused on improving the performance of sensors and actuators. This study introduces a novel approach that significantly improves in-position stability by adding specially designed reinforcement components. These components either convert an open frame structure to a closed one or increase the structural stiffness of the stage. Through modal analysis using the Finite Element Method (FEM), the modal shape across the stage was assessed and structurally weak parts were identified. The addition of reinforcement components resulted in a marked improvement in in-position stability, with the root-mean-square displacement values decreasing by 60.5% and 50.0% along the x and y axes, respectively. Moreover, these improvements were predictable through the use of FEM. Given its simplicity and cost-effectiveness, this method is proposed as a promising new strategy to enhance the performance of precision stages.</p>","PeriodicalId":14359,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Precision Engineering and Manufacturing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141946331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A blank holder is used to prevent wrinkling in the product, especially with thin sheets. The implementation of this process requires the use of double action press, and when the blank-holder is eliminated, single action press can be used, thus saving energy. In the current study, a new arrangement of punch and die was adopted to produce a square cup of brass from thin sheet in a single stroke of reverse deep drawing without blank-holder. Square cup produced by pushing blank with a hollow square punch through a square outer die which has inner square die. The geometric shape of the blank and its dimensions can affect the determination of the wrinkling as well as the drawing load and the distribution of strain and thickness, in addition reducing the metal removed as a waste in the trimming process of product. To study the effect of this parameter numerically and experimentally, three shapes were employed, square, square with fillet at its corners, and circular blank. The results show that the square blank gave a successful square cup of 30 mm rib, and 20 mm height has 4 mm radius without wrinkling. The maximum load and thickness distribution were almost similar for all blanks and an apparent change appeared in the thickness of the base. The maximum strain value decreases in the square blank. The speed of the punch can affect the determination of the drawing load, so three punch speeds (3, 6 and 9 mm/min) were experimentally employed to investigate their effect on load. The results revealed that the speed of 6 mm/min was the best.

Numerous studies in the literature used 3D finite element (FE) models to analyze crack propagation, but they did not take into account the effect of the load distribution ratio (LDR) throughout the gear face width, either in a moving load model or a uniform load model. In this study, an effort is made to investigate the impact of LDR and Load Sharing Ratio (LSR) in the modeling of moving loads for various loading positions and measure the actual crack propagation behavior of a spur gear with a root fracture using the 3D FE technique. Further, the influences of FE spur gear models on the variation of Actual Load Distribution with the effect of LSR, Stress Intensity Factors (SIFs), and crack propagation paths are also studied. A 3D FE crack propagation modeling procedure is validated with the experimental results of the SAEJ1619 fatigue test procedure. The experimental investigation using standard SAEJ1619 fatigue test procedure shows that the symmetric crack propagation failure at the crack front of the spur gear tooth was observed for a given uniform bending fatigue load. The results show that the mode I SIFs (K_I) and mode II SIFs (K_II) are dominant at the crack opening displacement for the positions of moving load between the Highest Point of Single Tooth Contact (HPSTC) and Highest Point of Tooth Contact (HPTC) lines. But, the K_II is highly influenced by K_I for further crack growth when the load is moved to the HPSTC line than the HPTC line.

The importance of this material in high-temperature applications due to its excellent thermo-physical properties is subject to extensive area of interest. The machining of nickel-based superalloy is a challenging task due to generation of high heat in grinding zone which impels the study of improvement of surface quality in the present study. The main aim of the present study is to find the optimum process parameters corresponding to minimum R_a value using different optimization techniques so that the production cost of components and time consumption can be minimized. In the present experimental study, investigation has been carried out on Inconel 718 through a CNC surface grinding machine. Due to the complexity involved in tough-to-machine material, the study focuses on the improvement of surface roughness using down grinding process by the optimization of three influential parameters such as wheel speed, depth of cut and table speed. Response surface methodology based central composite rotatable design is used in this study to illustrate the surface roughness value (R_a) which is greatly influenced by wheel speed followed by depth of cut and table speed. For the optimization of machining parameters, RSM coupled with genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) is used to reduce the time consumption in the selection of machining parameters and desirous output response in grinding. The R_a value corresponding to GA is found to be 0.2735 µm while 0.2586 µm using PSO technique. The best optimal process parameters corresponding to minimum R_a value using PSO technique are depth of cut = 5 µm, wheel speed = 628 m/min, and table speed = 3588 mm/min.
