21
Q

When the stator field is excited, the rotor follows the rotating magnetic field of the stator at the synchronous speed. If the stator field stops, the rotor also stops. With this permanent magnet rotor, no rotor current is needed and hence less heat is produced.

A

SYNCHRONOUS-TYPE AC SERVO MOTOR

22
Q

Also, these motors have high efficiency due to the absence of rotor current. In order to know the position of rotor with respect to stator, an encoder is placed on the rotor and it acts as a feedback to the motor controller.

A

SYNCHRONOUS-TYPE AC SERVO MOTOR

23
Q

structure is identical with that of general motor. In this motor, stator consists of stator core, armature winding and lead wire, while rotor consists of shaft and the rotor core that built with a conductor as similar to squirrel cage rotor.

A

INDUCTION-TYPE AC SERVO MOTOR

24
Q

The working principle of this servo motor is similar to the normal induction motor. The controller must know the exact position of the rotor using encoder for precise speed and position control.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

27
Q

motor consists of two separate windings uniformly distributed and separated at 90°, in space. Out of the two windings, one is referred as main or fixed winding while the other one is called control winding.

A constant ac signal as input is provided to the main winding of the stator. However, as the name suggests, the control winding is provided with the variable control voltage. This variable control voltage is obtained from the servo amplifier.

is generally of two types; one is squirrel cage type while the other is drag cup type

A

Rotor

30
Q

The rotor is generally of two types

A

squirrel cage
drag cup type

31
Q

In this type of rotor, the length is large while the diameter is small and is constructed with aluminium conductors thus weighs less.

It is to be noted here that the torque-speed characteristics of a normal induction motor have both positive as well as negative slope regions that represent unstable and stable regions, respectively.

A

squirrel cage

32
Q

are designed to possess high stability thus, its torque-slip characteristics must not have a positive slip region. Along with this the torque developed in the motor must reduce in a linear manner with speed.

are attached with a driving shaft that facilitates its operation.

A

35
Q

The two air gaps in both sides of the core lead to reducing the inertia thus is used in applications where there is a low power requirement.

A

36
Q

Initially, a constant ac voltage is provided at the main winding of the stator of the ac servomotor. The other stator terminal of the servomotor is connected to the control transformer through the control winding.

Q

APPLICATIONS OF AC SERVOMOTORS

A

Due to the various advantages offered by the AC servomotors, these majorly finds applications in the instruments that operate on servomechanism, in position controlling devices, computers. Along with this these also find applications in tracking systems, machine tools and robotics machinery.

38
Q

is an electric motor whose main feature is that its shaft rotates by performing steps, that is, by moving by a fixed amount of degrees. This feature is obtained thanks to the internal structure of the motor, and allows to know the exact angular position of the shaft by simply counting how may steps have been performed, with no need for a sensor. This feature also makes it fit for a wide range of applications.

Q

STEPPER MOTOR WORKING PRINCIPLES

A

As all with electric motors, stepper motors have a stationary part (the stator) and a moving part (the rotor). On the stator, there are teeth on which coils are wired, while the rotor is either a permanent magnet or a variable reluctance iron core. We will dive deeper into the different rotor structures later.

41
Q

The basic working principle of the stepper motor is the following:

A

By energizing one or more of the stator phases, a magnetic field is generated by the current flowing in the coil and the rotor aligns with this field. By supplying different phases in sequence, the rotor can be rotated by a specific amount to reach the desired final position.

42
Q

control how a stepper motor operates

A

Stepper drives

43
Q

there are three commonly used excitation modes for stepper motors

A

full step, half step and microstepping

44
Q

converts electronic signals into mechanical movement each time an incoming pulse is applied to the motor.

A

stepper motor

45
Q

If the stepper motor has a 1.8° step resolution, then in order for shaft to rotate one complete revolution, in full step operation, the stepper motor would need to receive 200 pulses, 360° ÷ 1.8 = 200.

A

okay

46
Q

the motor is operated with only one phase energized at a time. This mode requires the least amount of power from the driver of any of the excitation modes.

A

One-phase on - full step
FULL STEP EXCITATION MODES

47
Q

the motor is operated with both phases energized at the same time. This mode provides improved torque and speed performance. _________on provides about 30% to 40% more torque than one phase on, however it requires twice as much power from the driver.

A

Two-phase on - full step

48
Q

mode is a combination of one phase on and two phase on full step modes. This results in half the basic step angle. This smaller step angle provides smoother operation due the increased resolution of the angle.

A

Half step excitation mode

49
Q

produces about 15% less torque than two phase on - full step, however modified _______ eliminates the torque decrease by increasing the current applied to the motor when a single phase is energized.

A

Half step

50
Q

can divide a motor’s basic step by up to 256 times, making small steps smaller. A Micro drive uses two current sinewaves 90° apart, this is perfect for enabling smooth running of the motor. You will notice that the motor runs is quietly and with no real detectable stepping action.

A

Microstepping

51
Q

By controlling direction and amplitude of the current flow in each winding, the resolution increases and the characteristics of the motor improve, giving less vibration and smoother operation. Because the sinewaves work together there is a smooth transition from one winding to the other. When current increases in one it decreases in the other resulting in a smooth step progression and maintained torque output.
