screen.
5.5.3.2
Enter the linear motor options shown below.
Option Description
Manufacturer
Motor maker’s name. Saved in motor data file. Choose from list or enter manually.
Model Number
Motor model number. Saved in the motor data file. Choose from list or enter manually.
Units
Selects whether the parameters entered in this screen are in Metric or English units.
Mass
The mass of the motor. Used for calculating initial velocity loop tuning values.
Range: .0001 Kg to 100,000 Kg. Default: .0001 Kg.
Peak Force
The peak force that the motor can produce. Peak Force divided by Force Constant =
motor’s peak current limit. Range: 0.00001 to 1,000 N. Default: 0.00001 N.
Continuous Force
The continuous force that the motor can produce. Used with the force constant to
calculate continuous current. Range:
0.00001 to 1,000 N. Default: 0.00001 N.
Velocity Limit
Maximum speed of the motor. Used to calculate the velocity and acceleration limits for
the velocity loop. Range dependent on encoder resolution.
Force Constant
Relates the motor's input current to force produced. Sometimes abbreviated as Kf.
Range: 0.00001 to 1,000 N/Amp. Default: 0.00001 N/Amp.
Back emf
Constant
Relates the motor's input voltage to speed. Sometimes abbreviated as Ke. Used for
calculating maximum velocity for a given amplifier voltage.
Range: 0.01 to 1,000
V/M/Sec. Default: 0.01 V/M/Sec.
Resistance
Motor resistance line to line. Used for calculating the initial current loop tuning values.
Range: 0.01 to 327 . Default: 0.01 .
Inductance
Motor inductance line to line. Used for calculating the initial current loop tuning values.
