Electrical Engineering

Sketch a block diagram of the following system. The input shouldbe the desired position in mm, the output should be the actualposition in mm. Show the plant to be controlled, G(s), as well asthe sensor, H(s), and controller, C(s). All inputs and outputsshould be labeled with signal names and units.

Problem Statement:

The 3D print head mass is 2.2 kg.

The structure that raise and lowers the head has a mass of 0.8kg (including its motor).

The cross arm has a mass of 4 kg.

The design uses an air bearing slide on the cross arm. You mayassume the slide is frictionless.

The carriage position is measured by a linear encoder that canbe modeled as a continuous sensor.

The team has selected an actuator with a constant ratio betweenforce and voltage: 200N/V

A unity gain amplifier drives the motor and can generatevoltages between -24V and 24V

The print head has a range of motion of 0 mm on the left side to600 mm on the right side.
