Description
This work will show the reader how to size, select, and implement an industrial drive system. The author offers a practical but structured approach which places particular emphasis on smaller drive systems. Illustrations from the machine tool and robotics industry are given. It is at this smaller scale that the automation of processes has increased the demand for drive systems. The text also examines the usual decisions to be taken in obtaining a design solution. This is followed by a chapter giving information about position and velocity transducers, which are vital to computer controlled systems. There is then a comprehensive survey of motor types and their controllers, together with appendices of useful data on power semiconductors and design standards.
