APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING A MOTOR

摘要

An apparatus optimizes arm velocity when the arm is carrying a given payload. More specifically, the apparatus controls the performance of a motor so that the motor can move the arm at an arm maximum velocity when the arm is carrying the given payload. To that end, the apparatus includes an information input to receive motor performance information, and a controller operatively coupled with the information input. The controller is capable of determining the arm maximum velocity from the motor performance information. The controller also is capable of causing the motor to move the arm at the arm maximum velocity.
