Running and stopping repeatability are limited by the Servomotor.
3.3.1 Allowable Repeatability as Limited by the Servomotor
Running and stopping repeatability vary with motor conditions, such as the load conditions and
running time. A typical example is given below (See
3.2 "Starting and Stopping Time"
for de-
tails on symbols.).
■
W i t h Motor Idling or Stopped
The most common example is the operating cycle shown in
Fig. 3.3
where rms frequency for
motor armature current is lower than the rated motor current. I f we assume that T is the operating
cycle, then the range for T will satisfy the following equation.
T I p 2 (tr + + e t s
(s)
/R2
IR: Motor rated current (A)
a =
Ip//R:
Acceleration/deceleration current coefficient
[Ip:
Acceleration/deceleration current (acceleration/deceleration current a times larger than mo-
tor rated current) (A)]
[3 =
/OR:
Load current coefficient
[IL:
Current equivalent to load torque (load current (3 times larger than motor rated current) (A)]
Find
Ip,
tr, and tf that satisfy the equation above when cycle time (T) is already known.

The timing chart for motor armature current and motor speed is shown in
Fig. 3.4.
I f we assume
that allowable repeatability is
n,
then n can be found using the equation given below.
