MOTION CONTROL WITH INDUCTION-MOTORS

Induction motors (IM) currently provide a very wide speed range, mecha nically robust and relatively low cost motion control option. An up-to -date summary of the status of induction motor motion control technolo gy is the subject of this paper. The topics which this paper includes are as follows Basic Motion Control System Requirements Field Orientat ion Instantaneous Torque Control Principles for Induction Motors (FO-I M) Current Regulators for Induction Motor Motion Control Flux and Torq ue Regulators for Induction Motor Motion Control Self Commissioning an d Continuous Self-Tuning for Field Orientation Technology advances bas ed on modern control and estimation theory have the potential to furth er enhance the capability of this important class of servo drive syste ms.
