Feedback Control of a Two-Degree-of-Freedom Electromagnetic Reluctance Precision Motion System
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study investigates a novel Xθ actuation system driven by a reluctance actuator (RA) and two accompanying moving magnet actuators (MMAs). The system enables precise control of both translational (x) and rotational (θ) motion, offering a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) solution for high-precision applications. The two MMAs introduce additional force and torque dynamics through the solenoid and permanent magnet (PM) pairs. Flexure hinges assist with the retraction force of the mover element, providing the necessary stiffness without introducing frictional effects. The system was modeled analytically, optimized, and validated experimentally with a developed feedback and feedback control, achieving steady-state errors of approximately ±7 µm in x translation and ±0.3 mrad in θ rotation which can be attributed to systematic errors in the sensor itself. The most relevant application is the fastscan mirror in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography where specific targeted rotational and translational trajectories can benefit light beam positioning, such as wavefront corrections. This system allows translation and rotation specifications to be realized in one actuation unit, opening up more design possibilities for controlling precision motion systems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
