COMPUTER MODELLING OF SUCTION CUPS USED FOR WINDOW CLEANING ROBOT AND AUTOMATIC HANDLING OF GLASS SHEETS

Abstract

This paper describes basic principle of the state feedback control technique and its potential for the feed drive control in the machine tool domain.It evaluates the quality of the state control and compares it with the traditional cascade control.The emphasis is put on an estimation of the state variables using an FEM model of the feed drive mechanical structure and machine frame.
