Methodology of Practical Determination of Electric Drive for Force Compensating Manipulator.

We review the peculiarities of application of a methodology for the multifactorial choice of the electric motor for force compensating manipulator taking into account the fulfillment of the following conditions: coordination of freight and the engine transferring, minimization of maximum motor torque, freight transferring of maximum weight with the required maximum constant speed and maximum defined acceleration, providing standing mode of motor alive. According to the results of the performed review we selected a power part of electromechanical system of the manipulator and a practical test of high-speed and medium-speed synchronous electric motors driving from permanent magnets at application of gearboxes made by Sew Euro Drive and Russian-manufactured is carried out. The review showed that for the implementation of the vertical movement system of freight it is reasonable to apply the electric motor of general industrial use of DSM series that will allow reducing the cost of the perspective force compensating manipulator.
