ABSTRACT
Goniometric elastic stages provide high accuracy angular positioning along one or more rotation axes. One of the main accuracy characteristics is the deviation of the center of rotation. There are many factors that could impact this characteristic like material, geometry and position of the elastic guides, load, position of the applied force for the movement, manufacturing process, etc. As main factor that could have effect on design and accuracy of the elastic module, the position of the applied force e.g. position of the linear actuator and it effect on deviation of the center of rotation is subject of this paper. Based on the finite element analysis, different positions have been studied. These results are important as there are many cases where the position of the applied force can’t be on the optimal theoretical position or there are different deviations during production or assembly that could have impact on the accuracy/deviation of the center of rotation.
