Controller architecture

3-stage cascade control from PI controllers

1.position

2.Position Speed

3.Current/torque

2-stage cascade control

1.State controller for position and speed + switching integrator for static position error correction

2.PI current controller

Operating modes

Positioning Mode (Profile Position Mode)
Velocity mode (constant speed mode)
Homing mode (homing mode)

Positioning mode (Profile Position Mode)
(Velocity mode in preparation)

Controller input variables

Position or speed

Position, speed and acceleration

Trajectory generator

Trapezoidal speed profile

S-shaped speed profile

Trajectory parameters

Maximum speed (Profile Velocity),
Acceleration (Profile Acceleration),
Braking value (Profile Deceleration)

Maximum speed (Profile Velocity),
Maximum acceleration (Profile Acceleration, same as braking value),
Jerk / acceleration change (Profile Jerk)

Controller setting

Presets for stable operation for most basic applications
 
Position control setting parameters:
Proportional gain (Kp Pos)
Integral gain (Ki Pos)
 
Speed control setting parameter:
Proportional gain (Kp Vel)
Integral gain (Ki Vel)

Specification of the moving payload in grams [g]

Adjustable weight compensation / compensation of additional static forces

Fine tuning:

Switchable linear or root position control

Adjustable compensation of motor phase asymmetry ("Torque Ripple Suppression")

Fine tuning by adjusting the control gains (Pos Gain, Vel Gain, Err Gain)
