This thesis focuses on the design of an electrical drive system for the purpose of
high precision motion control. A modern electrical drive is usually equipped with a
current regulated voltage source along with powerful motion controller system
utilizing one or more micro-controllers and/or digital signal processors (DSPs).
That is, the motor drive control is mostly performed by a dedicated digital-motion
controller system.
Such a motor drive mostly interfaces with its host processor via various serial
communication protocols such as Profibus, CAN+, RS-485 etc. for the purpose of
receiving commands and sending out important status/control signals. Considering
that the motor drives lie at the heart of every (multi-axis) motion control system, the
aim of this thesis is to explore the design and implementation of a conventional DC
motor drive system suitable for most industrial applications that require precision
and accuracy. To achieve this goal, various underlying control concepts and
important implementation details are rigorously investigated in this study.
A low power DC motor drive system with a power module, a current regulator and
a motion controller is built and tested. Several design revisions on these subsystems
are made so as to improve the overall performance of the drive system itself.
Consequently, important &ldquo / know-how&rdquo / required for building high performance (and
high power) DC motor drives is gained in this research.
