The Importance of servo motor sizing should not be underestimated according to Wilfried Voss, author of A Comprehensible Guide to Servo Motor Sizing . Proper motor sizing will not only result in significant cost savings by saving energy, reducing purchasing and operating costs, reducing downtime, etc.; it also helps the engineer design better motion control systems. Knowledge of mechanical systems and their influence on motor speed, inertia and torque requirements, however, seems to have declined in a world where aspects like tuning and programming, seem to be the main focus. This book focuses primarily on servo motor sizing and it documents in detail the inertia and torque calculations for standard mechanical components and the motor selection process.Wilfried Voss is the President of Copperhill Technologies Corporation, a company specializing in motor sizing software development for various motor manufacturers all over the world. In addition, Copperhill Technologies sells user licenses of its generic motor sizing program, VisualSizer-Professional.Paperback Book $39Download (PDF) $29Printed: 162 pages, 8.5 inPublisher: Copperhill Technologies Corp.Copyright: 2007— C.G.
