6. GENERAL GAIN ADJUSTMENT
(c) Adjustment description
1) Speed control gain 2 (DRU parameter No. 16)
This parameter determines the response level of the speed control loop. Increasing this value
enhances response but a too high value will make the mechanical system liable to vibrate. The
actual response frequency of the speed loop is as indicated in the following expression:
Speed loop response frequency(Hz)
Speed control gain setting
(1 ratio of load inertia moment to servo motor inertia moment)
2
2) Speed integral compensation (DRU parameter No. 17)
To eliminate stationary deviation against a command, the speed control loop is under
proportional integral control. For the speed integral compensation, set the time constant of this
integral control. Increasing the setting lowers the response level. However, if the load inertia
moment ratio is large or the mechanical system has any vibratory element, the mechanical
system is liable to vibrate unless the setting is increased to some degree. The guideline is as
indicated in the following expression:
Speed integral
composition setting (ms)
2000 to 3000
Speed control gain 2 setting/ (1 ratio of load inertia moment
to servo motor inertia moment.)
(2) For position control
(a) Parameters
The following parameters are used for gain adjustment:
DRU parameter No. Abbreviation Name
12 GD2 Ratio of load inertia moment to servo motor inertia moment
13 PG1 Position control gain 1
16 VG2 Speed control gain 2
17 VIC Speed integral compensation
(b) Adjustment procedure
Step Operation Description
1
Set an estimated value to the ratio of load inertia moment to servo
motor inertia moment (DRU parameter No. 12).
2
Set a slightly smaller value to the position control gain 1 (DRU
parameter No. 13).
3
Increase the speed control gain 2 (DRU parameter No. 16) within the
vibration- and unusual noise-free range, and return slightly if vibration
takes place.
Increase the speed control gain.
4
Decrease the speed integral compensation (DRU parameter No. 17)
within the vibration-free range, and return slightly if vibration takes
place.
Decrease the time constant of the speed
integral compensation.
5 Increase the position control gain 1 (DRU parameter No. 13). Increase the position control gain.
6
If the gains cannot be increased due to mechanical system resonance or
the like and the desired response cannot be achieved, response may be
increased by suppressing resonance with adaptive vibration
suppression control or machine resonance suppression filter and then
executing steps 3 to 5.
Suppression of machine resonance
Refer to Section 7.2 and 7.3.

While checking the settling characteristic and rotational status, fine-
adjust each gain.
