Experiments Included:

  • DC Servo Motor Modeling and Identification
  • Intelligent Servo Controller
  • Sensor Measurement and Position Control in MATLAB
  • DC Servo Velocity Adjustment

Servo motors plays a very important role in industry process. These servo motor can be DC or AC depending on the requirement. The DC servo trainer IT-4421 is a closed loop DC servo system designed in modular construction. The key concept behind this trainer system is to provide practical working knowledge of a closed loop DC servo systems to the users by integrating basic theories and step-by-step experiments into one subject. To maximize the educational effectiveness, each section ends with a brief experiment to conclude what the user has learned in the experiment.

Features:

  • Sensors installed on-board
  • Control Circuits Installed
  • Drivers Installed
  • The basic model (IT-4421) uses PC to communicate with the intelligent driver and the intelligent driver controls the motor with velocity and position.

MatLab Control Interface:
Technical Features:

  • Motor: DC
  • Optical Encoder: 1000 lines/revolution
  • Gear Ratio: 1:4
