Hi!
I’m trying to use the D6374 150KV to provide a sinusoidal torque input (max 4Hz frequency) to a system in order to run some dynamics experiments. I’d like to be able to control the torque output of the motor as closely as possible so that I can more easily interpret the results of the experiments.
I’m trying to use current control to drive the motor, but I’m finding that the difference between the Iq_setpoint
(0) and Iq_measured
(1) is a little larger than I’d like:
- Is it possible to tune the current controller to reduce the range of noise from 100-300 mA down to <100 mA? I’ll be driving the motor from 2-20A with a 24V power supply.
- The Getting Started Guide provides a method of tuning the position controller; is there any issue with using the same procedure to tune the current control parameters?
- More generally, is the variation of
Iq_measured
away fromIq_setpoint
caused by measurement noise, or is there a limit on how precisely I can prescribe the current output.
Thanks!
