The electric feed drive used in metal-cutting machines like any high-precision electric drive requires high accuracy of reference processing and robustness against perturbations. For this purpose, feedforwards are added to the position controller to improve set point processing time and to compensate for disturbances. Feedforwards are usually tuned manually when the machine is setup, either by applying a series of tests on the motor or by calculation. The calculation requires some information about the magnitudes of disturbances that can be compensated by appropriate feedforwards, but this information is not always available a priori. In this paper, we propose tuning the feedforward coefficients based on the results of the parametric identification of the values of the torques acting on the electric drive, as well as the apparent moment of inertia. For parametric identification the methods of electric drive theory, method of least squares, and digital signal processing method are used; mathematical modeling method is applied to assess the compensation quality. The authors propose the method of tuning the parameters of the control system of electric feed drive based on parametric identification of the values of torques acting on the motor and/or the operating device. The results of control system simulation show both high identification accuracy and significant reduction of dynamic control error when feedforwards are activated. The considered structure of the control system and the proposed algorithm of identification and adjustment of its parameters can be used in electric drives of metal-cutting machine tools. The simulation results have shown that the use of feedforwards, tuned in accordance with the algorithm, enable to reduce the dynamic position tracking error by more than 50 times, which can be critical in contour machining.

Development of control system based on digital twins of physical processes is a promising area of research in the rolling industry. Closed-loop control systems are developed to control the coordinates of two-mass electromechanical systems in order to limit the dynamic loads on the equipment of main rolling lines. These control systems are based on observers (digital shadows) that indirectly detect (reconstruct) the roll speed and the elastic torque of the shaft (spindle) in real time. Notably, observers are required to work fast in order to reconstruct transients attributable to shock (impact) loads. Literature review shows that the known observers, which use complex algorithms to compute coordinates, do not respond fast enough. The paper analyzes the kinematic diagram of Mill 5000, a plate rolling mill. It presents oscillograms that prove that the elastic torque does oscillate as the rolls grip the strip dynamically. The authors hereof have developed an observer that reconstructs the coordinates of the uncontrolled mass (the shaft) and the spindle torque from the parameters of the controlled mass, namely the torque and speed of the motor. The paper further rationalizes an approach that consists of simulating the processes on a model to further directly configure them on the object. The authors analyze the transients of the reconstructed two-mass system coordinates, which are associated with the rolls gripping the strip. The paper compares data against oscillograms recorded on the mill itself. The accuracy is satisfactory. The proposed observer has been used to developed a three-loop automatic speed control system for the uncontrolled mass. Controller configurations are substantiated. The paper shows coordinates obtained by simulation modeling as functions of time. It further presents experiments run on Mill 5000; the conclusions are that the amplitude and oscillations of the elastic torque drop significantly. The paper concludes with recommendations on industrial adoption of the observer and the novel electric drive coordinate control system. Study presented herein substantiates and implements a concept of developing algorithms that solve specific problems and are readily implementable on the existing equipment without need for additional computing devices. The contribution of the paper consists of stating and solving the problem of developing and testing an automatic elastic torque control system for the shaft of a heavy-duty rolling mill. This system has been implemented in the form of algorithms that run in the software of the existing industrial controllers (PLCs). It is simple and performs well. It does not need additional sensors or computers to be implemented, nor does it rely on complex computational algorithms. Such algorithms are based on computational tables that require a priori data on numerous process parameters. In our literature review, we have not come across any industrial implementation of such algorithms on hot-rolling mills.

Basically, there are two main techniques to control the vehicle yaw moment. First method is the indirect yaw moment control, which works on the basis of active steering control (ASC). The second one being the direct yaw moment control (DYC), which is based on either the differential braking or the torque vectoring. An innovative idea for the direct yaw moment control is introduced by using an active controller system to supervise the lateral dynamics of vehicle and perform as an active yaw moment control system, denoted as the stabilizer pendulum system (SPS). This idea has further been developed, analyzed, and implemented in a standalone direct yaw moment control system, as well as, in an integrated vehicle dynamic control system with a differential braking yaw moment controller. The effectiveness of SPS has been evaluated by model simulation, which illustrates its superior performance especially on low friction roads.

In order to reduce operation risk and working intensity in mountainous orchard transportation and to realize optimized control for the mountainous orchard electric-drive monorail transportation system, a mountainous orchard electric-drive monorail transporter control system was designed and developed in this study. The system mainly consists of modules as: manual and remote control, positioning, obstacle avoidance, speed measurement, motor control, electric-magnetic break, and the position limit. The driving speed, current consumption, break control, and battery pack running ability experiments were conducted to test the control system. Results indicated that, the transporter’s driving speed is 0.60~0.58 m/s when it is running on the ground with the load weight from 0 to 100kg. This speed is little affected by the load weight. The transporter’s driving speed is 0.45~0.28 m/s when it is climbing a steep hill with an angle of 39°. That speed is critically affected by the load weight. In further improvements, a shift mechanism will be introduced so that adjustable gear ratio could be achieved thus solve the current overload problem in a full load situation.

The article deals with the main trends in the development of marine automatic AC electric drive systems. A variant of the implementation of an electric drive using an electromechanical converter of a synchronous machine with electromagnetic field excitation is presented. A promising electric drive system with a valve engine for the icebreaker's with the Azipod propulsion and steering system is proposed. The aim of the work is to eliminate the structural complexity and expand the functional capabilities of the electric drive by using a scalar automatic control system of the frequency of rotation in the two-zone control of the valve motor of the EPS. The novelty lies in the use of the approach and representation of the control object-a valve motor as an analog of a DC collector motor controlled by an armature and by a field. The analysis of control processes is directly related to the processes of electromechanical energy conversion occurring in a synchronous machine.
