Abstract

In this paper, we present some innovative and general strategies for the control of benches and platforms, that the introduction of the new class of monolithic UNISA Folded Pendulum is now making it possible, also in terms of environmental conditions, like ultra-high-vacuum (UHV), cryogenics and harsh environments. In particular, we present and discuss a parametric analysis of the control models in connection with the sensors limitations in terms of sensitivity and band. Finally, we present and discuss some experimental laboratory tests on a laboratory platform, underlining the present advantages and the expected future improvements.
