Servomotor Sizing and Application

Bok av Gary Kirckof
This book brings together all the resources needed to analyse mechanisms for the purpose of selecting an appropriate servomotor. Written for mechanical engineers engaged in the design of industrial machinery, this book is also well suited to the control engineer because it illustrates practical servomotor applications. The book breaks the motor sizing process into its elementary topics and covers each in depth. It then brings it all back together with detailed examples. Topics include kinematics, duty cycles, inertia, friction, and mechanics. The analysis of linkages is also discussed using the crank-arm and a two axis parallel robot as examples.
