To utilize the high force of reluctance actuators for high-precision fast scanning motion, this paper presents a nanopositioner that integrates two reluctance actuators for a bidirectional force and investigates its achievable performance. A challenge of reluctance actuators is their force-current nonlinearity. To model it accurately for compensation, a displacement sensor for real-time motion control is utilized to measure the force curves. A model based on the experiments is used to compensate for the nonlinearity by means of feedback linearization. It successfully decreases a total harmonic distortion of sinusoidal scanning trajectories from 25% to 2.6 %, which is further improved to 1.45% by linear position feedback control. The achieved bandwidth and the positioning resolution are 335 Hz and 2 nm. Additionally, feedforward control is designed, and sinusoidal scanning motions at 1 Hz and 100 Hz are evaluated for a feasibility study to find out challenges and potentials of reluctance actuators.
