Abstract

In this paper, a levitating nano-positioning stage with arc-edged permanent magnet Halbach arrays is presented. Construction of the nano-positioning stage is given, and the components of the stage are designed. For the key actuation unit, an accurate model of the arc-edged permanent magnet Halbach actuator is developed using the Fourier series expansion, which is validated by the Maxwell software. Based on the model, optimization is made to the arc-edged permanent magnet Halbach array. The optimization results show that the arc-edged permanent magnet Halbach actuator can produce a very small thrust ripple with a large average thrust to guarantee the high precision of the positioning stage.
