Automated Insertion of Objects Into an Acoustic Robotic Gripper
(2020)ProceedingsAcoustic levitation forces can be used to manipulate small objects and liquid without mechanical contact or contamination. To use acoustic levitation for contactless robotic grippers, automated insertion of objects into the acoustic pressure field is necessary. This work presents analytical models based on which concepts for the controlled insertion of objects are developed. Two prototypes of acoustic grippers are implemented and used to ...Conference Paper -
Optimized pulse patterns for the 5-level ANPC converter for high speed high power applications
(2006)IECON 2006 - 32nd Annual Conference on IEEE Industrial ElectronicsThis paper presents the analysis of the active neutral-point-clamped 5-level converter (ANPC5L) with regards to the total harmonic distortion (THD) for high speed, high power applications. A 5 MW machine with fundamental frequency of 500 Hz is considered. The converter can be switched up to 2 kHz, thereby making the switching frequency to fundamental frequency ratio in the range of 3-4. Different optimized pulse patterns (OPP) are studied ...Conference Paper -
