Your first question may be what is a servo motor’s inertia ratio or mismatch (J_load : Jm or J_load/Jm)? Simply put, the inertia ratio is an important figure-of-merit for helping the machine designer consider servo controllability and risk of future potential control instabilities during the design’s initial inception. While an important figure-of-merit for all closed loop (servo) applications, it is perhaps even more relevant for the most dynamic servo applications.
