A coupled electromechanical dynamic model for a working platform supported by an active magneticguide(AMG)is set up according to the special stiffness and damping theory of maglev system and theunique vibration of the working platform for a machine tool.The dynamic characteristics of a workingplatform supported by an AMG are studied using different groups of control parameters.Results show thatthe dynamic characteristics of the platform system,such as critical vibration frequency,vibration modeand so on,can be improved by adjusting the control parameters.This research offers theoretical supportfor ultra-high-speed and ultra-precise machine working platform designs,including the structure of plat-forms,the design of electromagnets,and the establishment of the control parameters.
