The paper is devoted to the clarification and generalization of the analytical methodology for the synthesis of typical digital astatic regulators of industrial electric drives, which can be presented in the form of discrete transfer functions in the Z-transformation, according to the given speed quality factor, and the development of recommendations for determining the setting parameters of such regulators. It is proposed to determine the coefficient of the integral component according to the given speed quality factor, and determine the other setting parameters in such a way as to compensate for two (for PID-regulators) or one (for PI-regulators) poles of the discrete transfer function of the control object. The ranges of speed quality factor values for a number of electric drives that are optimal in terms of dynamic performance indexes have been determined. It has been proven that to increase the speed in systems with PI controllers, it is necessary to compensate for the larger of the two poles. References 10, figures 5.
