Torque Control Operation
In torque control a torque value can be given as reference for the motor output. If the torque command and the
load are not balanced, the motor accelerates or decelerates.
The speed limit circuit prevents the motor speed from rising above certain value set by an analog input or
parameter d5-04. The speed limit function mainly consists of two parts, the priority circuit and the speed
limiter circuit.
The priority circuit selects between the torque reference value from the analog input or from the speed control-
ler (ASR) output. If the output speed is below the speed limit, the analog input value is taken as torque refer-
ence. Otherwise the ASR output value is taken as torque reference.
The speed limit circuit adds a speed suppressing torque to the torque output if the speed exceeds the speed
limit. Together with the priority circuit it prevents the output speed from exceeding the speed limit.
The torque control block diagram is shown in Fig 6.85.
