Abstract: A static auto-tuning system and method for controlling operation of a motor in a system. A speed reference signal is generated resulting in a speed response of the motor. Closed-loop feedback magnifies the rotating friction effect to an observable level. Inertia and rotating friction coefficient values of the system are estimated based on the speed frequency response and a virtual damping coefficient. A fixed low frequency speed signal may result in a first frequency response function for determining virtual damping, and a variable frequency excitation signal may result in a second frequency response function for determining the inertia and rotating friction characteristics. Closed-loop gains are determined based on these characteristics. The excitation signal may be sampled and a peak value in each interval may be identified and stored to produce an envelope of peak values for determining the gain response. Operation of the motor is controlled using the determined gains.

A further etching process is then performed to remove the extra substances by physical etching.
