15.5.2 Capacity Selection Calculation
Perform capacity selection calculation to obtain the servomotor capacity necessary for machine
specifications (configuration).
Items necessary for capacity selection calculation include the following.

Load inertia (moment of inertia of mechanical system)

Load torque (torque necessary to move the machine)

Acceleration/Deceleration time

Operation profile
In general, there is no way to measure the inertia of the mechanical system and load torque, calculate
approximate values according to the configuration of the machine.
