* piezoelectric actuators
* fine movement control
* gantry-stage control
* interpolation of quadrature encoder signals
* geometrical error modeling for single-, dual- and general-XY-axis stages.
This second edition of Precision Motion Control focuses on enabling technologies for precision engineering. It has been extensively edited and rewritten throughout with the following particular areas being expanded or added:
* piezoelectric actuators
* fine movement control
* gantry-stage control
* interpolation of quadrature encoder signals
* geometrical error modeling for single-, dual- and general-XY-axis stages.
From reviews for the first edition:
Precision Motion Control nicely integrates a number of important topics in precision motion control. It also comes with a complete set of references for further information. All told, it represents a useful reference and an excellent single source of essential topics related to precision motion control.
