Experimental Comparison of Position Tracking Control Algorithms for Pneumatic Cylinder Actuators

Abstract

Many researchers have investigated pneumatic servo positioning systems due to their numerous advantages: inexpensive, clean, safe, and high ratio of power to weight. However, the compressibility of the working medium, air, and the inherent nonlinearity of the system continue to make achieving accurate position control a challenging problem. In this paper, two control algorithms are designed for the position tracking problem and their …
