Abstract: A position value, a desired position value and future desired position values as well as, for each future desired position value, a value which is characteristic of the temporal offset between said future desired position value and the respective immediately preceding desired position value are predefined for a position controller for an axle. The position controller uses a model of the axle to determine a manipulated variable and a respective expected manipulated variable and an expected position value for the future desired position values. The position controller determines the manipulated variable, the expected variables and the expected position values in such a manner that a total deviation of the position value and the expected position values from the corresponding desired position values is optimized in accordance with a predetermined assessment function. It drives the axle in accordance with the manipulated variable.

Abstract: An instantaneous actual position value, an instantaneous desired position value and future desired position values as well as, for each future desired position value, a value which is characteristic of the temporal offset between said future desired position value and the respective immediately preceding desired position value are predefined for a position controller for an axle. The position controller uses a model of the axle to determine an instantaneous manipulated variable and a respective expected manipulated variable and an expected actual position value for the future desired position values. It determines the instantaneous manipulated variable, the expected manipulated variables and the expected actual position values in such a manner that a total deviation of the instantaneous actual position value and the expected actual position values from the corresponding desired position values is optimized in accordance with a predetermined assessment function.

Abstract: The invention relates to an open-loop control process for the motional guidance of conveyed material (32) in a conveying device (30) and to a corresponding conveying device (30). The conveying device (30) has a movable means (36) for realizing the conveyance and a first motion detector (42) for measuring a first actual position value (x1act) for the movable means (36) and a second motion detector (40) for measuring a second actual position value (x2act) for the conveyed material (32).
