Abstract

This paper focuses on developing a universal Hardware-in-the-Loop simulation workplace which is used in education and research in the field of mechatronic systems modelling and control. The workplace concept is based on generally available and employed hardware (Programmable Logic Controller) and software means (MATLAB), configured to enable work on practically any type of both continuous and discrete system. The technological equipment of the workplace can be further expanded for work on larger MIMO systems found in real technological practice. The workplace is mainly being used for solving tasks related to electric drives, mechatronics, robotics and technological plant control. A case study involving a DC motor drive control is included in the paper.

Appendix

DC motor: nn = 2800 ot/min−1, Pn = 2.3 kW, Mn = 146 Nm, In = 12.3 A, J = 0.0315 kgm2, UaN = 220 V, Ra = 1.6 Ω, La = 8.8 mH, cɸ = 0,7 Vs, Ka = 0.625 Ω−1, Ta = 0.l0055 s, Mz = 140 Nm

Parameters for discrete PI controllers were calculated based on KOM (speed loop) and KSO (current loop) method: current loop: q0I = 2, q1I = 1.8; speed loop: q0w = 5, q1w = 4.95.
