The objective of this master thesis is to test according to hoisting requirements, a servo drive system and compare its performance with the performance of a drive equipped with a vector controlled frequency converter. Both systems utilize closed-loop vector control based on PCL program control. In order to compare the results of tests both systems were connected to the same motor driving a variable speed electrical chain hoist.
Tests were based on requirements to both systems. As requirements of tests zero speed operation, operation in field weakening, positioning accuracy and smoothness of motion are taken into consideration. Both systems demonstrate quite similar performance and meet the requirements. Servo drive system demonstrates a high positioning accuracy and dynamic performance. Frequency converter is not able to provide the same positioning accuracy and dynamic performance as servo drive.
