Abstract

This course covers model building and the applied stimulation of (power-assisted axles on production machinery using MATLAB/Simulink and provides a practical example of how drive parameters may be set up, how through simulation an optimal axis design can be developed and which characteristics of a production machine can be reliably estimated in advance.

Objective

The students are able to model servo axes considering all relevant components and process influences to simulate the achievable productivity.

Content

1. Introduction, complexity levels in model building for production machines. 2. Modelling of the input (torque/force) generation for servo drives 3. Plant model, linear belt drive example 4. Heuristic cascade controller commissioning 5. Feedback control for optimum damping of flexible servo drives 6. Numerical control systems 7. Simulation examples in MATLAB/Simulink
