Synchronous Controller for Dual Servo Motor in Servo Press

Abstract

This study shows the results of double servomotors synchronization controller (SC) for Mirco-precision servo press. Two systems are used in this study, one is the master motor and another is the slave motor. Each system is designed separately. Also, it is necessary to use the synchronous controller to minimize the synchronization error and the motion command is transmitted simultaneously to two motors. The control system for the master motor includes a feedback controller (FB) and a zero phase error tracking controller (ZPET). For the slave motor, only velocity is controlled. The feedback controller is a cascade control structure, velocity and position controller. It can make the output follows the command. In order to reduce synchronized motion error, two servomotors are synchronized by the SC. The results of simulation reveal that the performance of the overall control system is improved compare to open loop, the synchronous position error between two sliders were less than 4μmm.
