Course description and aims
Students in this course learn about the basic components of machinery for which precision motion is important, such as ultraprecision machine tools, exposure devices, 3D measuring machines, etc., the type and properties of components selected for the basic configuration, design techniques, as well as precision measuring technology and control methods that are needed for motion systems that use that machinery. The instructor also introduced trends in their use.
High-precision movement is a basic and important capability which can be implemented by understanding real machine problems in greater detail and solving them. The purpose of this course is to acquire basic knowledge and skills for this task.
Student learning outcomes
Students will acquire the following skills by taking this course.
1) Learn basic knowledge of machines for precision and ultra-precision motions, and gain an understanding of precision deterioration factors.
2) Understand the basic principles of sensors for precision / ultra-precision motion and the properties of control methods, and be able to make appropriate selections.
3)Learn the basics of the controller design method for positioning mechanisms using classical control theory.

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.

Prerequisites (i.e., required knowledge, skills, courses, etc.)
1) There are no special conditions for taking courses, but it is desirable to take related courses. In particular, knowledge of classical control is indispensable, and students who do not understand the Laplace transform or Bode plot should not take this course.
2)Some undergraduate students take the course, but most students find it difficult to submit reports due to the undergraduate project. Reconsider the declaration carefully according to the schedule of your project.
Other
Lecture schedules and methods may change depending on the corona infection status.
Students who are expecting to easily earn a credit through a simple survey should not take this course because you will also design the control system of the mechanism using MATLAB / SIMULINK as your homework.
