Generalization of a method for the selection of drive systems and transmissions under dynamic loads

This work proposes the generalization of a method for the selection in a machine of a system electric drive––transmission under dynamic loads, now considering also some effects that can significantly modify the required choice, such as the resistant torques acting on the machine, the adjunctive masses on motor and load, more complex reference tasks, particular shapes of the motor operating ranges. The study is made both in relation to the continuous duty and to the dynamic behaviour of the motor. The treatment is made referring to suitable diagrams that permit to intuitively understand the effects of the involved parameters. The method is illustrated with an industrial case study.
