Multi-degree of freedom position sensor for planar motors

This thesis presents the development and verification of a multi-degree of freedom (DOF), non-contact position sensor for a magnetically levitated planar motor. Planar motors are intended to replace X-Y stages in various manufacturing processes resulting in higher accuracy, higher speed, and no fric...
