@inproceedings{9519, abstract = {{Several positioning tasks demand translatory drive instead of rotary motion. To achieve drives that are capable e.g. to drive the sunroof of a car or to lift a car's window, multiple miniaturized motors can be combined. But in this case many other questions arise: the electromechanical behavior of the individual motors differs slightly, the motor characteristics are strongly dependent on the driving parameters and the driven load, many applications need some extra power for special cases like overcoming higher forces periodically. Thus, the bundle of motors has to act well organized and controlled to get an optimized drive that is not oversized and costly.}}, author = {{Hemsel, Tobias and Mracek, Maik and Wallaschek, Jörg and Vasiljev, Piotr}}, booktitle = {{Ultrasonics Symposium, 2004 IEEE}}, issn = {{1051-0117}}, keywords = {{drives, electromechanical effects, linear motors, ultrasonic motors, car sunroof, car window, electromechanical behavior, high power ultrasonic linear motors, multiple miniaturized motors, positioning tasks, translatory drive, Costs, Electromagnetic forces, Frequency, Laboratories, Manufacturing, Mechatronics, Micromotors, Ultrasonic imaging, Vibrations, Voltage}}, number = {{Vol.2}}, pages = {{1161--1164}}, title = {{{A novel approach for high power ultrasonic linear motors}}}, doi = {{10.1109/ULTSYM.2004.1417988}}, volume = {{2}}, year = {{2004}}, } @inproceedings{8915, abstract = {{Ultrasonic linear motors have now been investigated for several years. Their key features are high thrust forces related to their volume and good position-accuracy. This contribution consists of two main parts. In the first part we describe the state-of-the-art of linear piezoelectric motors. Characteristics like no-load velocity, maximum thrust force and other technical properties of commercially available devices will be reported as well as those of prototypes. In the second part we report an ongoing research and development project aiming at a linear piezoelectric motor, which is capable of surpassing some of the shortcomings of other piezoelectric motors}}, author = {{Hemsel, Tobias and Wallaschek, Jörg}}, booktitle = {{Ultrasonics Symposium, 2000 IEEE}}, issn = {{1051-0117}}, keywords = {{linear motors, ultrasonic motors, linear piezoelectric motor, maximum thrust force, no-load velocity, ultrasonic linear motor, Electromagnetic devices, Electromagnetic fields, Frequency, Friction, Gears, Materials science and technology, Piezoelectric materials, Research and development, Vibrations, Wheels}}, pages = {{663--666 vol.1}}, title = {{{State of the art and development trends of ultrasonic linear motors}}}, doi = {{10.1109/ULTSYM.2000.922635}}, volume = {{1}}, year = {{2000}}, }
