This work shows the reader how to size, select, and implement an industrial drive system. The author offers a very practical but structured approach to drive systems. Particular emphasis is given to smaller drive systems with illustrations from the machine tool and robotics industry. It is at this smaller scale that automation of processes has increased the demand for drive systems. The text examines the usual decisions to be taken in obtaining a design solution. This is followed by a chapter giving information about position and velocity transducers which are vital to computer controlled systems. There is then a comprehensive survey of motor types and their controllers together with appendices of useful data on power semiconductors and design standards. The aim is to provide answers in a logical framework or at least outline an answer and give direction to sources of detailed solutions.
