Abstract: The paper presents design and verification of Forced Dynamics Control of an actuator with linear permanent magnet synchronous motor. This control method is a relatively new one and offers an accurate realisation of a dynamic speed response, which can be selected for given application by the user. In addition to this, the angle between stator current vector and moving part flux vector is maintained mutually perpendicular as it is under conventional vector control. To achieve prescribed speed response derived control law requires estimation of an external force, which is obtained from the set of observers. The first observer works in pseudo-sliding mode and observes speed of moving part while the second one has filtering effect for elimination of the previous one chattering. The overall control system is verified by simulations and experimentally. Preliminary experiments confirmed that the moving part speed response follows the prescribed one fairly closely.
