Modern servo motor controllers capable of
precision position, velocity and torque control have
massively boosted up many industries such as robotics,
food production, military, etc. during the past decades [1].
High cost of servo motor control systems due to the
complexity and the high-end technical expertise required
to design, operate and maintain these systems can be a
major problem in certain applications. Therefore, cost
effective and easy-to-operate systems are needed. This
paper presents the use of TMC4671-BOB module based
on the Field Oriented Control (FOC) algorithm from
TRINAMIC Motion Control GmbH & Co. KG for a cost
effective and easy-to-operate servo motor controller.
Configuring the module to operate a servo motor with an
incremental encoder in Velocity and Position control
modes is presented
