Abstract

Developing a controller for a mechanical conveyor mechanics is considered in this paper. The mechanical conveyor under study is divided into two subsystems. The first is a rotating mass and the second is a chain conveyor. Each of these subsystems can operate independently from the other. Two identical servo motors supported with two similar drivers are used to drive this system. A controller is designed to achieve significant response of the system and to respond to the user demands for different modes of operations. Also, the controller achieves the required profile of the output speed for the motors. In addition, perfected following of the motors speed with the required speed trajectory for each subsystem
must be ensured. This paper describes the integration among Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Engineering CAD/CAE software, real time testing and simulation incorporated with rapid controller prototyping techniques can be used to perform controller design for complete mechatronic machine. The article and experimental results to satisfy the improved performance of the system are included in this paper.
