Abstract: An electric current control method for a servomotor in which a reactive current is lowered in a region where a voltage saturation does not occur, to suppress generation of heat caused by the reactive current and achieve a stable rotation up to a high-speed region. In the current control of the servomotor using a DQ conversion, an electric current is not supplied to d-phase and supplied only to q-phase when a rotational speed of the servomotor is not high, and the reactive current is supplied to the d-phase only when the rotational speed of the servomotor is high, to thereby lower the terminal voltage of the servomotor by the reactive current. Thus, the reactive current is reduced in the region where the voltage saturation does not occur, to thereby suppress the generation of heat due to the reactive current, and also achieve the stable rotation even in the high-speed region.
