Common Axis Drive

Components
• For all BUT the SenSys axis

– Stepper motor
– Ball screw with preloaded drive nut
– Limit and home switches
– Encoder (absolute, rotary)
– Fail-safe brake (not on camera axis)
• SenSys camera axis
– TS Products motor with internal encoder

Axis Drive Resolution

• Stepper motor
– 200 full steps per revolution
– 10 steps per full step
2,000 steps per revolution
• Lead Screw
– 2-mm per revolution lead screw
– With stepping results in 1 m per step resolution
• will need ~1/2 m per step for yaw and pitch resolution
• Absolute encoder
– Parallel interface
– Minimum encoder resolution of 2,000 counts per
revolution will count each step

Axis Drive Loads

• Worst case is “uphill” motion
• Loads consist of:
– Inertia load
– Gravity component along axis
– Friction
• Encoder
• Bearings
• Drive screw
• Others

Linear Axis Mounting

• THK preloaded rails & bearings
– Multiple rails with one block per rail
– Slides mounted perpendicular to travel on one side will
prevent binding due to misalignment & thermally
induced dimensional changes
• similar to bearing arrangement on the tracker carriage

GLW
Yaw/Pitch Axis Mounting

• Yaw axis
– THK radial cross roller bearing for the pivot
– THK curved bearing rail for additional support
• similar to rho bearing on the carriage
• Pitch axis will use flex pivots for the pivot
• Yaw and Pitch axes will use flex pivots and small
slides to accommodate  (±2°) & L (~0.3 mm)
at the drive nut

Optical Mounts
and Adjustments
07 Nov 2002

GLW
Optical Mounts
• Manual adjustments made with opposed

adjusting screws where possible
– Locks stage in position, does not rely on springs to
hold stage against adjustment screw
• Combination of flex pivots, pins, adjusting and
clamping screws for yaw/pitch adjustments
• X-Y-Z and X-Z cross roller stages for translation

Manual Adjustments
Part 1
• Lenslet
– x, y, yaw, pitch: aligns lenslet to optical axis
• Lenslet/camera stage
– focus: positions lenslet/camera wrt collimator
• Collimator
– x, y, yaw, pitch: aligns collimator to optical axis
– focus: positions collimator wrt beam splitter cube
• Beam splitter cube
– x, y, focus, yaw, pitch: aligns cube to laser beam

Manual Adjustments
Part 2
• Reference mirror
– x, y, yaw, pitch: aligns mirror to optical axis
– focus: positions mirror wrt HET focus
• SenSys camera
– x, y: positions camera wrt optical axis
• Light source
– x, y, focus: positions fiber wrt pin hole
• Knife edge
– focus: positions knife edge wrt beam splitter cube

Current Design Status
• Most purchased components are identified

• Final layout work & mounting details need to be
completed
• Drive configuration needs to be finalized
• Laser for component alignment needs to be
added
• Drawing generation is the next big task

Unknowns
• Tolerance analysis
• Metal finishing-is it needed?

Axis Drive Loads

in pictures and equations
Fdrive + F = ma
a Fdrive-Ffr-W*cos() = m*a
and with m = W/gc

Ffr
Fdrive-Ffr-W*cos() = W*a/gc
rearranging
W cos()
W
Note that:
 = 35° >> cos(35°) = 0.82
gc = 386.4 in/sec2 >> for small a’s, cos() dominates
Fdrive = Ffr + W*[cos() + a/gc]
used a = 10 in/sec2 in calculations
Not all axes have a W cos() component

Drive nut
produces torque
converts torque to force
Force * Lead
Torque =
