A Fast Autotuning Method for Velocity Control of Mechatronic Systems

Abstract In this paper a fast automatic tuning methodology for velocity controllers of mechatronic systems is proposed. In order to be applicable in general, the method takes into account the position, velocity and torque constraints of the motion control system and it requires a minimum intervention of the operator. Further, it can be implemented also with small computational capabilities which makes it suitable for industrial drives. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the technique.
