This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202211575174.1 with a filing date of Dec. 8, 2022. The content of the aforementioned application, including any intervening amendments thereto, is incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure relates to a method for dynamic output force distribution of a motion stage, and in particular, to a method for dynamic output force distribution of a multi-degree-of-freedom over-actuated motion stage, and belongs to the technical field of vibration suppression for semiconductor manufacturing equipment and motion stages.
A multi-degree-of-freedom precision motion stage is an important component in semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The performance and accuracy of motion thereof have a direct influence on a yield of the equipment and the quality of products. Thus, the multi-degree-of-freedom precision motion stage is required to realize high-accuracy control when performing high dynamic motion. The multi-degree-of-freedom motion stage is designed with a larger size to further improve the yield of the equipment. A future motion stage will be designed and developed to be lightweight and flexible due to the limitation of finite output force from an actuator and a high acceleration requirement. Thus more flexible modal vibration will be introduced to the motion system. Therefore, an over-actuation strategy may be developed by increasing the number of actuators for solving this problem. However, the introduction of an over-actuator results in a problem of non-unique solutions to a non-square actuator output force distribution matrix. Meanwhile, restrained by a finite space and quality, it is difficult to realize zero-residue vibration suppression in all controllable flexible modalities with finite actuator redundancies.
Chinese patent publication No. CN107783378B filed on Aug. 30, 2016 discloses a vertical micromotion structure of a lithography machine and a control method, in which flexible modal shape parameters of some orders are introduced into an output force distribution matrix according to the number of actuator redundancies so that vibration suppression can be realized for the flexible modalities of respective orders. However, the method cannot meet the requirement of vibration suppression for all controllable flexible modalities under finite actuator redundancies and may even enlarge the flexible modal vibration of an uncontrolled order. In view of this, it is urgent to propose a suitable actuator output force distribution matrix.
Aiming at the defects in the prior art, an objective of the present disclosure is to provide a method for dynamic output force distribution of a multi-degree-of-freedom over-actuated motion stage that can realize zero-residue vibration suppression in all controllable flexible modalities with finite actuator redundancies and is conducive to improving the distribution efficiency.
To achieve the above objective, the present disclosure adopts the following technical solution. A method for dynamic output force distribution of a multi-degree-of-freedom over-actuated motion stage includes the following steps:

Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure achieves the following beneficial effects. The present disclosure can solve the problem of non-unique solutions to a non-square output force distribution matrix in an existing multi-degree-of-freedom over-actuation design. The dynamic output force distribution matrix is adopted so that zero-residue vibration suppression in all controllable flexible modalities can be realized with finite actuator redundancies. All calculation is explicit calculation without a numerical optimization process, leading to low time consumption in calculation. The method is conducive to improve the distribution efficiency.
The technical solution of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

The present disclosure is mainly applied to design an output force distribution matrix for a multi-degree-of-freedom over-actuated motion stage, including two parts, namely establishing a mathematical model of the over-actuated motion stage based on a modal representation and designing a dynamic output force distribution matrix based on instruction execution. The part of establishing the mathematical model of the over-actuated motion stage based on the modal representation needs to obtain parameters of the mathematical model of the motion stage based on the modal representation in accordance with a mechanical structure of the motion stage and a model identification result thereof. The part of designing the dynamic output force distribution matrix based on the instruction execution is to design a dynamic matrix of output force distribution with the instruction shaping idea and obtain an analytical solution to a non-square output force distribution matrix. Zero-residue vibration suppression in all controllable flexible modalities can be realized. Overall implementation of the present disclosure is simpler and more convenient.
