Download or read book Industrial Servo Control Systems written by George W. Younkin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This state-of-the-art reference discusses how servo control theory can be employed to recognize and correct real-world servo application problems - detailing hardware specifications and servo drive classifications vital to the operation of machine servo drives. Emphasizing the importance of selecting the correct size servo drive for a given machine, Industrial Servo Control Systems explains how to put servo drive components together to make a servo work...describes the evolution and classification of servos...considers the components of machine servo drives from a mathematical point of view...covers proportional, integral, and differential compensation...includes manual drive sizing forms for both electric and hydraulic servo drives...provides valuable performance indexes that can be used in establishing and judging the performance of servo drives...offers useful techniques to compensate for machine non-linearities that will affect servo drive performance...examines machine considerations such as inertia, drive stiffness, thrust/torque requirements, and drive duty cycles...introduces novel simulation methods to predict the performance of a servo driven machine before it is built...and more. Furnishing over 690 helpful tables, equations, and drawings, Industrial Servo Control Systems is essential reading for all mechanical, manufacturing, system and machine design, hydraulic, industrial, chemical, electrical and electronics, process control, power system, and servo engineers; systems maintenance personnel; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
