A method and a device operating according to the method automatically generate a control program designed for diagnostic purposes of a production machine or machine tool. The control program is generated using freely selectable parameters and/or machine-specific parameters by an algorithm which defines a movement profile. The movement profile incorporates at least one test run for at least one axis of the respective production machine or machine tool, wherein the at least one test run produces an axis excitation which is suitable for determining at least one mechatronic characteristic variable of the respective axis.

A device for damping vibrations of a machine, in particular for damping vibrations of a machine tool, wherein the device includes a first linear motor primary part, a pendulum mass, mounted via at least one supporting sheet-metal assembly provide a relative motion of the pendulum mass along the first linear motor primary part, a first linear motor secondary part fastened to the pendulum mass such that the pendulum mass is actuated via the first linear motor primary part to dampen vibrations of the machine, a second linear motor primary part, and a second linear motor secondary part fastened to the pendulum mass such that the pendulum mass is additionally actuated via the second linear motor primary part to dampen vibrations of the machine so as to achieve an especially compact device that makes it possible to dampen vibrations of machines, in particular machine tools, effectively and without maintenance.

Damping of vibrations of a machine

A closed-loop control device to control a system to be controlled includes a front node, back node, external tapping point, controller and compensating circuit. The compensating circuit has an inner node, frequency filter, front buffer and back buffer. The front node determines a difference; the back node supplies an external sum signal. A setting device automatically suppresses use of the output signal of the front buffer, supplies the back buffer and the back node with a first excitation signal as the compensation signal and detects a first result signal produced by the first excitation signal. The first result signal is one of the control difference, internal sum signal, output filtered signal of the frequency filter or output signal of the front buffer. The setting device evaluates the first excitation signal and the first result signal, sets a parameter of the frequency filter and the second propagation delay.

A control facility for controlling a controlled system experiencing a disturbance includes a front nodal point receiving a target value and an actual value outputted by the controlled system and supplying a difference value corresponding to a difference between the target value and the actual value to a compensation circuit. The compensation circuit supplies a frequency-filtered and time-delayed signal formed as the sum of the weighted difference value and a weighted feedback signal as an input to a controller for the controlled system. The sum of a filter delay time and of first and second propagation delays is an integer multiple of the cycle duration of the disturbance, and a sum of the filter delay time and the first propagation delay is an integer multiple of the cycle duration minus a propagation time, which elapses until a change in the target value causes a change in the actual value.

An electric machine for installation to a retaining device includes a stator having an axis, and a torque-support device for supporting the stator against the retaining device to prevent a turning movement around the axis. The torque-support device has an intermediate element, at least two holding support elements for providing support against the retaining device, and at least two stator support elements for providing support against the stator. The holding support elements and the stator support elements possess each a greater rigidity in a circumferential direction in relation to the axis than in any other spatial direction.
