Study on a Pneumatic Artificial Muscle Actuator

Article Preview

Abstract:

Pneumatic artificial actuator had been designed and was used as power driven. A 3-DOF Pneumatic artificial actuator was described as a micro-robot flexible actuator, the mechanical model and dynamic characteristics were studied for high accurate control. The control system was designed and the actuator characteristics were tested in experiments. Results prove the pneumatic artificial actuator has good performances and can be controlled in high speed and high accuracy by computer system with PWM (Pulse Width Modulation: PWM).
