Design of an Modular Nano Positioning System
Slide03Slide1Slide3ulu_ulu_cakmakci_j_3anpsSlide02 In manufacturing systems, axis controllers' modular design causes performance loss due to the system's coupled nature, although it increases systems' maintainability and upgradability. This coupled nature of the system can be addressed by building controllers that consider the effects from the other degree of motion of the system. Modularity is adversely affected when...

Design of a Modular Multi Axis Micro-Manufacturing System
Slide15Slide09Slide01Slide14Slide03CIRPpresent_v2 After completing the modular multi-axis nano-positioning system discussed above, a Multi-Axis Manufacturing System was built. The manufacturing system can rapidly transform between milling, rapid prototyping, and laser cutting configurations. The presence of these new configurations introduced constraints in the design with different disturbance characteristics. The robustness (micro-milling), repeatability (laser cutting), and smooth tracking...

Design of a Modular Mechatronic Device (MECHACELL)
Slide02Slide12Slide08Slide06Slide03Slide01 In recent years, there has been increased usage of sensors and actuators and devices with onboard monitoring and diagnostics that enable interesting controller design opportunities. Mechatronic systems generally contain controller and monitoring sub-systems to ensure their operational performance during their life cycle. These types of systems are called Smart Mechatronic Systems. Please enable...

Design of an Acoustic Vector Sensor
Picture2Picture3Picture1 An Acoustic Vector Sensor (AVS) is a device used to detect acoustic signals by converting the mechanical energy of an incident wave to a detectable electrical energy using the acoustic particle principle from the literature. Its design is based on two parallel piezoelectric beams attached to a mechanical sensing tip using a rotary...

Concurrent Design of Automotive Sub-System Controllers
Slide2Slide1Slide3dokuyucu_cakmakci_j14 Automotive companies always seek to find alternative ways of operating vehicles more efficiently to cope with the high-performance standards driven by customers. Using hybrid powertrains, which combine two or more power sources, significant improvements in fuel efficiency and emissions are possible. However, including the new power sources and the accompanying energy storage systems...

Control of Non-Orthogonal Multi-Axis Systems
wholemanipmassfigmanufactured2manpart1lasercut In this work design and development of a micromachining system that can perform on non-linear contoured surfaces is studied using a parallel manipulator system. The laser micromachining system is designed and assembled, including a nanosecond Q-switched pulsed fiber laser, a 6-DOF hexapod manipulator, a granite table to absorb vibrations, and an external cabin...
