  • Abstract
    Describes the performance evaluation of a limited-angle torque motor, using a simple piecewise analytical approach to overcome system nonlinearities. A block-diagram model developed from a combination of measurement and manufacturer´s data is shown to be capable of accurately predicting both the steady-state and the dynamic performance. The approach described is of valuable assistance in the design of a complex multiloop nonlinear controller that is needed for a drive system containing the motor
