contents Rotary motors, such as hybrid stepper motors (HSMs), are widely used in industries varying from printing applications to robotics. The increasing need for productivity and efficiency without increasing the manufacturing costs calls for innovative control design. Feedforward control is typically used in tracking control problems, where the desired reference is known in advance. In most applications, this is the case for HSMs, which need to track a periodic angular velocity and angular position reference. Performance achieved by feedforward control is limited by the accuracy of the available model describing the inverse system dynamics. In this work, we develop a physics-guided neural network (PGNN) feedforward controller for HSMs, which can learn the effect of parasitic forces from data and compensate for it, resulting in improved accuracy. Indeed, experimental results on an HSM used in printing industry show that the PGNN outperforms conventional benchmarks in terms of the mean-absolute tracking error.
