Introduction In the field of modern motion control, the shape and quality of the generated reference are essential to achieving optimal system performance. Whether driving industrial automation, precision robotics, or testing equipment, the ability to generate finely tuned motion profiles directly impacts accuracy, responsiveness, and mechanical longevity. Traditional control methods often rely on trapezoidal or step-based references, which, while effective in simpler systems, can present sharp transitions, induce vibrations and reduce control accuracy. To address these limitations, Technosoft drives have a wide range of trajectory generation algorithms, but in this article we’ll focus on the generation of sinusoidal reference across [...]

Introduction In motor control applications, unexpected failures can pose serious safety risks, cause damage to equipment, costly repairs, and disrupt productivity. Therefore, the ability of a system to effectively handle critical errors is essential. Technosoft drives are designed with a robust protection system that combines both hardware and adaptive software, ensuring reliable operation and preventing potential damage during critical situations. Most important protections: Short-circuit protection This hardware protections safeguards against short-circuits or current spikes between motor phases or between a motor phase and ground. If a short circuit is detected or even a wrong voltage command, the drive stops the [...]

Overview Technosoft motion control drives are used in a plethora of industries and depending on the application type and characteristics, their power ranges from just a few watts to High Powered (8KW) applications, such as the AGV industry. Here the phenomenon of regenerative braking, although not limited only to the cases of high power applications, is certainly more important and has clear and visible effects. This is the process in which the mechanic energy (usually present in the load in the forms of kinetic or potential energy) is converted to electric energy in the motor and is flowing back toward [...]

Introduction In the world of motion control applications, voltage efficiency helps increasing the overall performance of the motor control allowing higher speeds to be reached. The Micro 4804 family of miniature drives stand out by achieving an impressive 91% minimum voltage efficiency at 100 kHz PWM frequency, making them the perfect choice for compact, high-precision systems that demand both power and reliability. Understanding PWM in Motor Control PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) is the most used method for controlling power delivery in power electronics and motor control systems. PWM works by rapidly switching the drive outputs on and off, varying the [...]
