Magnetic Levitation
Abstract In the present paper, a magnetic levitation
system (maglev) with a degree of freedom (vertical) is
designed and simulated. This article seeks to demonstrate
that is possible to model and control the magnetic
levitation systems from a mechanical model. To linearize
the obtained equation Taylors series is used, which
allows to get an open loop transfer function. Finally, an
unstable equation is obtained, that will be stabilized using
the PID controller in a closed loop circuit.

The present paper shows that the modeling and the control
of magnetic levitation are possible. For the modeling, the
transfer function was obtained, with which sought to design a
PID controller; however, some mathematical artifices
(changing the sign of the plant) had to be done in order to use
the Ziegler and Nichols method, with which a correct PID
controller is achieved.
Furthermore, the PID controller was improved by
increasing the derivative constant. With this the setup time
and the overshoot were lower, achieving the objectives of
this work.
