A control device includes: an angular velocity detection unit that detects an angular velocity of a motor; a vibration component removal unit that removes a vibration component in a predetermined band from the angular velocity detected by the angular velocity detection unit by filtering; and a current command calculation unit that calculates a current command value of a drive current for driving the motor according to a torque command value and the angular velocity from which the vibration component has been removed by the vibration component removal unit.

Control device

A first torque estimator determines a first torque estimation value according to a cross product method, and a second torque estimator determines a second torque estimation value according to an energy method. A torque weight adjuster adjusts, using a weighting coefficient calculated in accordance with a predetermined condition, weightings respectively applied to these two types of torque estimation values, and outputs a torque estimation value.

Motor control device and motor control method

A command generation device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a command receiving unit that receives a high-level command value related to motion of a motor from a host device, and an internal target generation unit that generates an internal target value of the motor, including a position target value and a rotational speed target value, based on the high-level command value. The internal target generation unit includes a feedback calculator that generates the internal target value corrected based on a difference between the high-level command value and the internal target value, and generates the internal target value corrected in a cycle shorter than a cycle of receiving the high-level command value with the command receiving unit.

Command generation device and command generation method

A control device to perform feedback control based on a current value, and output a first voltage value includes a feedforward controller using an inverse model of a plant; a feedforward voltage corrector to correct a voltage disturbance due to a modeling error between the plant and a model of the plant; a repetitive controller to learn periodic current disturbances; and a switch. The switch is ON when the current response is in a steady state, and the repetitive controller learns the disturbances and corrects a command current value. A feedback controller outputs the first voltage value by performing the feedback control based on a current value from the corrected command current value, and inputs the command current value to the inverse model to generate a second voltage value. The control device outputs a sum of the first and the second voltage value as a command voltage value.

Plant control device that corrects for modeling error and periodic disturbances

A control device includes angular velocity detecting circuitry, feedback circuitry, torque command calculation circuitry, a limiter, a drive controller, and correction circuitry. The angular velocity detecting circuitry detects an angular velocity of a motor. The feedback circuitry obtains a feedback value from the angular velocity. The torque command calculation circuitry obtains a torque command value according to a superordinate torque command value supplied from a superordinate device and the feedback value. The limiter limits the torque command value obtained by the torque command calculation circuitry so as not to exceed a preset torque upper limit value. The drive controller performs a drive control of the motor according to the limited torque command value. The correction circuitry corrects the superordinate torque command value or the torque command value according to the feedback value and the superordinate torque command value.
