About
Fangchao Xu is a researcher advancing precision motion control and robotic actuation, with key contributions in micro-positioning platforms and variable stiffness joint actuators. Their work on an equal-stiffness and equal-stroke 2D micro-positioning platform, driven by piezoelectric actuators, addresses critical needs in microelectronics, robotics, and biomedicine, achieving 10 citations. This platform ensures uniform stiffness and stroke across axes, enhancing precision in nanoscale manipulation. Xu also developed a novel decoupling method for independent position and stiffness control in an antagonistic variable stiffness joint actuator (VSJA), enabling a larger stiffness range than conventional designs. This work, cited 8 times, uses static analysis to simplify dynamic modeling and control, offering safer, more adaptable human-robot interaction. By bridging piezoelectric-driven micro-positioning and variable stiffness robotics, Xu’s research demonstrates impact in both ultra-precision manufacturing and compliant robotic systems. Their achievements highlight a focus on structural optimization and control decoupling, laying groundwork for next-generation actuators in biomedical devices and collaborative robots.
