Dual speed control scheme of servo drive system for a nonlinear friction compensation

摘要

Servo motor drive systems with ball-screw and timing-belt are widely used in a NC, robot, FA and industrial applications. Most of servo motor and drive system transfer the motor torque to load as mechanical connection. However, the nonlinear friction of coupled mechanical devices reduces the control performances. Especially, in the low speed range, tracking errors are serious due to the break-away friction and Stribeck effects. In this paper, a new dual speed controller is proposed for the compensation of nonlinear friction torque. The proposed dual speed controller has outer speed controller and inner friction torque compensator. The friction torque compensator adds additional torque corresponding nonlinear friction of mechanical devices, so the actual speed can be fast followed the reference value. Since the proposed nonlinear friction torque compensator uses the actual speed information without any motor parameters and mathematical model, the proposed compensator has very simple structure and the high stability. The proposed control scheme is verified by computer simulation and experimental results.
