Establishing Commutation for Encoder-Halls Based Motors with the AKD/AKD2G >

Commutation is the means by which a servo drive controls the torque of a motor by determining the position of the motor and applying current to the appropriate motor phases.  If the rotor position of the motor is not determined correctly or the…

Commutation is the means by which a servo drive controls the torque of a motor by determining the position of the motor and applying current to the appropriate motor phases.  If the rotor position of the motor is not determined correctly or the…

What commutation offset do Kollmorgen motors have? >

DBL / DBK with Encoder Feedback has no defined commutation offset. The commutation offset is determined with the help of the servo amplifier and stored in the encoder memory. AKM with Hiperface encoder Encoder is installed…

Setting HALLOFFSET in the PC800 >

Finding the correct value for HALLOFFSET in the PC800 servo drive Follow this procedure: Set Hallofffset to a value. NVSAVE, power cycle. Set Commenbl = 0. Enable drive. Record Encpos. Increase Commoff by 20 deg. Encpos should increase by an…

Choke General >

Chokes are inductive components in the electrotechnics and are used for interference suppression, commutation, energy storage and current limitation.

Wake and Shake >

One of the basic functions in the drive of a brushless servomotor is the commutation. The commutation is the current transition of one winding of the motor to the next winding. Only in case of a correct commutation time respectively a correct…
