Abstract EN
Pneumatic cylinder is a well-known device because of its high power to weight ratio, easy use, and environmental safety.
Pneumatic cylinder uses air as its power source and converts it to a possible movement such as linear and rotary movement.
In order to control the pneumatic cylinder, controller algorithm is needed to control the on-off solenoid valve with encoder and pressure sensor as the feedback inputs.
In this paper, generalized predictive controller (GPC) is proposed as the control strategy for the pneumatic cylinder force control.
To validate and compare the performance, proportional-integral (PI) controller is also presented.
Both controllers algorithms GPC and PI are developed using existing linear model of the cylinder from previous research.
Results are presented in simulation and experimental approach using MATLAB-Simulink as the platform.
The results show that the GPC is capable of fast response with low steady state error and percentage overshoot compared to PI.
