The aim of this lecture is to convey knowledge in the following areas:

• Most important drive components of controllable drives
• Circuit technology for speed-controlled DC and AC main drives
• Circuit technology for position-controlled DC and AC positioning drives
• Power electronic circuits for the operation of DC and AC drives
• Describing dynamically servo and main motors by using their differential equations
• Guide systems for the field-oriented operation of AC drives
• Functionality of the most important sensors for the detection of speed and position
• Describe the operating behaviour of servo and main drives
• Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of direct drive technology

The following content is presented:

• Development of actuators and control drives
• Variance of the drive components
• Transition from plant technology to mechatronics
• Classification of the dynamic control drives into main and servo drives
• DC main drives
• AC main drives
• Step servo drives
• DC servo drives
• AC servo drives
• AC servo drive in block current technology
• AC servo drive in sine current technology
• Linear direct drives
• Current drive developments
