Tuning the Drive to the Motor

OEM650/OEM650X • TUNING & SPECIFICATIONS

Touch Method

After you have had some experience with tuning, you should be able to locate the motor’s resonance speed by placing your fingertips on the motor shaft and adjusting the motor’s velocity. Once the reso- nance speed is located, you can tune the motor for maximum smoothness in the same way.

To tune the OEM650X, follow the directions below:

1.Command the drive (via RS-232C or STEP & DIRECTION inputs) so that the motor is running at maximum roughness, as shown in Table 3-1 for the 1st speed motor resonance.

Motor Size	1st Speed Resonance	2nd Speed Resonance
OEM57-40-MO	1.8 rps	3.6 rps
OEM57-51-MO	1.8 rps	3.6 rps
OEM57-83-MO	1.8 rps	3.6 rps
OEM83-62-MO	1.4 rps	2.8 rps
OEM83-93-MO	1.4 rps	2.8 rps
OEM83-135-MO	1.4 rps	2.8 rps

2.Adjust Offsets A and B for best smoothness.

3.Double the motor speed (2nd speed resonance) until the motor runs rough again.

4.Adjust offsets A and B again for best smoothness.

5.Repeat above steps until no further improvement is noted.

Motor Waveforms

Step motor manufacturers make every effort to design step motors that work well with sinusoidal current waveforms. However, due to physical limitations, most motors operate best with a current wave- form other than a pure sine wave.

The purpose of adjusting motor current waveforms is to cause the step motor to move with equal step sizes as the current waveforms are sequenced through the motor. This waveform matching will also help the motor run more smoothly. This can be changed with jumpers 6-8 (refer to Table 2-11).

Motor waveforms are usually adjusted after the drive has been tuned to its motor. If you do not have precision measurement equipment, you may select the correct motor waveform with one of the three methods described previously in this chapter (Tachometer Method, Sounding Board Method, Stethoscope Method, and Touch Method). These empirical methods generally yield acceptable results.
