  • Publication number: 20090284208
    Abstract: Even when rigidity of a load drive system using a motor is relatively low, by performing a load position control in which a load position signal is fed back as stable as a semi-closed control system in which only a motor position signal is fed back, an accurate load position control can be made possible. Therefore, regarding a load position signal xl as a present-position measurement value of a load 20, after compensation in response to a phase delay thereof has been performed by a stability compensation circuit 80, the high-frequency portion thereof is taken as a control-target position signal xfb by replacing, in a position-signal combination circuit 90, by a motor position signal xm as a present-position measurement value of a motor 30, and then the control-target position signal xfb is fed back to a position control circuit 110; thereby, a torque command signal indicating a torque target value that the motor 30 drives the load 20 is configured to be outputted.
