We are looking for a highly motivated Research Scientist in robot joint module system design and control to develop cutting-edge control technologies for next-generation robotic actuators and joint modules.
The position focuses on module-level control of a single robotic joint, covering motor control, actuator control, sensing, system modeling and the interaction between control and joint hardware. Candidates with strong backgrounds in motor control, servo control, motion control, electromechanical actuators or precision drive systems are highly welcome, even without direct experience in robotics.
Main responsibility includes:
- Conduct research, pre-development and patent filing of innovative control concepts for robotic joint modules and electromechanical actuators
- Develop advanced motor and actuator control algorithms for single-joint robotic modules
- Design and optimize torque/current, velocity and position control loops for high-performance robotic actuators
- Develop control strategies to achieve high torque density, dynamic response, positioning accuracy, stability and energy efficiency
- Conduct research on disturbance rejection, friction compensation, feedforward control, parameter identification and model-based control for robotic joint modules
- Develop and validate torque control and force-related control functions for robotic actuators, including impedance/compliance control where appropriate
- Analyze the influence of gearbox/transmission, friction, backlash, stiffness, inertia, load variation and mechanical resonance on joint control performance
- Conduct system modeling, simulation and experimental validation of motor–transmission–sensor–controller–load systems
- Implement and validate control algorithms on real-time embedded platforms, and conduct prototype testing and performance optimization
- Work closely with mechanical and electrical engineers to optimize joint hardware and control as an integrated system
- Work closely with corporate research hub in Renningen, Germany on project activities and competence development
- Work closely with business units to supply cutting edge and competitive technology solutions and to transform them to products
