Methodology for Practical Selection of Force Compensating Manipulator Electric Drive

The article reviews the peculiarities of application of a methodology of multifactorial the electric motor selection for force compensating manipulator account for 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 vertical movement system of freight it is reasonable to apply a DSM series electric motor of general industrial use that will allow reducing the cost of the perspective force compensating manipulator.
