RMC70/150 and RMCTools User Manual

Issue the commands for transitioning between position and pressure/force as you intend

to do during normal machine operation. For some applications, this may involve creating

a simple user program.

View the transition on a plot. If the pressure/force drops off at the transition, increase the

Integrator Preload parameter in the Enter Pressure/Force command.

10. Fine-tune the System

The final tuning of the system should be made at the rate and pressure/force range of

intended operation. Look for following errors, overshoot, or oscillations, and consider the

following:

• Should the system seem a little sloppy, try adjusting the Proportional Gain.

• If the actual pressure lags or leads the target position during the entire constant

velocity section of the move, adjust the Feed Forwards.

• If an Output Saturated error occurs, there is not enough drive capacity to drive the

axis at the requested rate of pressure/force change. Should this occur, increase the

Ramp Time or decrease the speed of the system.

• If the Control Output is not high, the gains can probably be increased for better

control, depending on system stability.

• Adding or changing the pressure/force feedback filter may help if noisy feedback is

suspected.

2.3.9. Tuning a Motor in Torque Mode

When tuning a motor in torque mode, use the basic instructions in the Tuning a Position Axis

topic, but use the order of the gains below.

Tuning Order

Torque motors generally do not have much damping. Damping must be provided for the

system, or it will be difficult to control. Providing some Differential Gain will effectively

dampen the system. Therefore, the Differential Gain must be set early in the tuning

process:

Method 1:

a. Set all the gains to zero.

b. Increase the Proportional Gain to the point where the motor moves somewhat when

given a Move Absolute (20)

command. You should notice that the axis has a tendency

to overshoot.

c. Increase the Differential Gain so that the axis ceases overshooting. If the axis begins

oscillating or chattering, decrease the Differential Gain.

d. Continue tuning the gains in the order given in the Tuning a Position Axis

topic.

Method 2:

a. Set all the gains to zero.

b. Issue the Hold Current Position (5)

command to the axis.

c. Increase the Differential Gain until the motor start humming (or chattering or

oscillating), then decrease the Differential Gain significantly, perhaps up to 50%, to

avoid oscillation later when making moves.

d. Continue tuning the gains in the order given in the Tuning a Position Axis

topic.

Small Motors

For very small motors that can be rotated by hand, the Differential gain can be set before

any other gains.
