ABSTRACT: This paper presents the compliance modeling of a compliant stage with symmetric configuration. Empirical compliance equations for the circular flexure hinge are first introduced. Using the matrix method, the output compliance of a compliant stage with symmetric configuration is then obtained. Finally, the compliances derived from the proposed theoretical model and finite element analysis (FEA) are compared. It indicates that the results calculated by the theoretical model are in good agreement with those derived from FEA, which demonstrates the accuracy of the theoretical model.
