Abstract
A redundant mechatronic system. The redundant mechatronic system is formed with two channels and is or can be connected for the output of a varying mechanical power to a mechanical arrangement, wherein each of the two channels includes an energy supply and an actuation circuit or a common energy supply is connected upstream of both channels, and both channels can be controlled by at least one control unit. The control unit acts on the actuation circuits in such a manner that the actuation circuits in each case switch an electric power specified by the control unit and drawn from the energy supply through to in each case a winding set of at least one electrically operated actuator, in order to generate the mechanical power. The two channels are operated in parallel during normal operation, in such a manner that each channel provides half of the mechanical power to be instantaneously output.
