Abstract

Abstract In a position control system having force as a manipulated variable and position as a controlled variable, negative feedback of position and velocity is performed. Positive feedback of acceleration is performed through a first order lag circuit. Alternatively positive feedback of velocity is performed through a quasidifferential circuit. By the combination of negative and positive feedback, it is possible to stabilize vibration characteristics of the mechanism, which tends to make the control system stable, and to achieve position control with high gain, high response and high accuracy.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 93 words
A method of position control for stabilizing vibration characteristics of a position control system having force as a manipulated variable and position as a controlled variable, said method of position control comprising the steps of: performing negative feedback of the position of an object and velocity of said object from a position and velocity determining means to a control means; and performing positive feedback of acceleration of the object from an acceleration detecting means to the control means through a first order lag circuit which includes vibration characteristics of the position control system.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 93 words
