The uniaxial model study demonstrated that very stiff nano-hexapod configurations should be avoided due to their high coupling with the micro-station dynamics.
|

A rotating three-degree-of-freedom model revealed that soft nano-hexapod designs prove unsuitable due to gyroscopic effect induced by the spindle rotation.

To further improve the model accuracy, a multi-body model of the micro-station was developed, which was carefully tuned using experimental modal analysis.

Due to the system's symmetry, this metrology provides measurements for five degrees of freedom: three translations (\(D_x\), \(D_y\), \(D_z\)) and two rotations (\(R_x\), \(R_y\)).

The sixth degree of freedom (\(R_z\)) is still required to compute the errors in the frame of the nano-hexapod struts (i.e. to compute the nano-hexapod inverse kinematics).

This \(R_z\) rotation is estimated by combining measurements from the spindle encoder and the nano-hexapod's internal metrology, which consists of relative motion sensors in each strut (note that the micro-hexapod is not used for \(R_z\) rotation, and is therefore ignore for \(R_z\) estimation).
