Abstract
A method for drive control of a vertical mill having a grinding plate rotatable about the vertical axis by a drive train composed of an electric motor and a gearbox is disclosed. At least the electric motor and the grinding plate represent inertia elements in a system that can oscillate and are connected by the gearbox operating as a torsion spring element. A variation in the rotation speed of at least one of the inertia elements is measured, and the electric motor is governed by a controller that minimizes the measured variation in the rotation speed. The controller is parameterized for governing the electric motor so as to minimize maximum reaction torques resulting in the gearbox when applying a sinusoidal excitation.
