Control of high precision roll-to-roll manufacturing systems. Zheng, G. Ph.D. Thesis, December, 2018. (reader)![Control of high precision roll-to-roll manufacturing systems [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper abstract bibtex 14 downloads The flexible electronic industry has been growing rapidly over the past decade. One of the barriers to commercialization is the high cost of manufacturing micro- and nano-scale printed electronics using traditional methods. Roll-to-roll manufacturing has been identified as a method of achieving low cost and high throughput. A dynamic model of a roll-to-roll system is presented. In all roll-to-roll applications, tension and velocity must be accurately controlled to desired reference trajectories to ensure a quality finished product. Additionally, a registration error model is presented for the control design. Minimization of the registration is the primary objective for flexible electronics, but web tension and velocity cannot be neglected. The model is needed in order to formulate a methodology that can simultaneously control tension, velocity, and registration error in the presence of disturbances. Micro and nano-scale features are susceptible to damage from friction between the web and the roller. Therefore, tension estimation techniques is highly desired to eliminate load cells from the system. The reduced order observer, extended Kalman filter, and an unknown input observer is presented. Development of tension and velocity control strategies have historically revolved around decentralized SISO control schemes. In order to achieve higher precision, a centralized MIMO strategy is proposed and compared to decentralized SISO. The advantage of the MIMO controller improved handling of the tension velocity coupling in roll-to-roll systems. The tension observer is introduced to the control design and evaluated for overall effectiveness. In simulation, the centralized MIMO control with the unknown input observer demonstrated superior tension and velocity tracking as well as minimal registration error. Development of the proposed MIMO control strategy can enable flexible electronic fabrication using roll-to-roll manufacturing.
