Servo drives in production machines are either position-, speed-, force- or torque-controlled. As the motor current is proportional to torque or force, the current control loop dynamics is crucial for all operating modes. In production machines used in the semiconductor industry, it is particularly important that the bandwidths of the control loops are continuously increased. It is thus important to take the dependency of motor resistance and inductance on frequency in control loop design into consideration. As the switching frequencies of wide-bandgap semiconductors increase, the effect becomes even more significant. This paper discusses the influence of frequency-dependent resistance and inductance on the behavior of a PI current controller. A design method for an optimized and robust current controller is then presented on this basis. Verification is performed with two completely different servo motors-a 3-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor and a high-dynamic optimized voice-coil motor.
Analyzing and Optimizing Fixed-Point Operations on a MATLAB Simulink based Motion Control System
(2023)
This paper deals with the analysis and optimization of fixed-point operations in the context of motion control systems and the MathWorks MATLAB® Simulink® environment. It presents a procedure for estimating the maximum arithmetic error of fixed-point operations inside a modeled control loop, which can be used to verify compliance with a defined precision. Additionally, it shows the results of a runtime analysis for different numerical data types in combination with two fixed-point operations: addition and multiplication. In order to improve the fixed-point performance for MATLAB® Simulink® models, two optimized implementations are provided, which can improve the fixed-point operations by a factor up to 3, compared to the automatically generated operation implementations. The paper results are based on the MATLAB® R2022b release.
