Influence of servodrive controller settings on energy consumption

The aim of this work is to investigate the energy consumption of the servo drive at different control settings. First, the theoretical part describes the servo drive as a mechatronic system with subsequent disassembly in terms of losses and efficiency, where all the losses that occur in the servo drives are defined. Subsequently, the theoretical part concludes with a chapter on controllers, thanks to which it is possible to control servo drives and describes their influence on the resulting control. In the practical part, a model of a DC motor with a linear axis and regulation was first created in the Simulink program. Subsequently, the Matlab program defined motion with linear acceleration and motion using S-curves, which controlled the model. Then the model was measured at different settings of the controllers and the resulting waveforms together with the energy values were compared with each other. In the second half of the practical part of this work, a real servo drive was then measured with a subsequent comparison with the created model. In this comparison, the resulting waveforms and energy values were also compared. The result of this work is then to determine the effect of changes on the resulting control, which are made in the controller settings. The functional models can then be used to determine how the various servo drives will behave under the given control conditions
