GRIPPING DEVICE WHICH IS MONITORED BASED ON COUNTER ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE AND A METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE GRIPPING DEVICE
A gripping device monitored based on CEMF and a method for controlling the same includes: using a controller to instruct a drive unit to rotate a stepper motor; using the controller to compare the control instruction with a control parameter matrix stored in an access unit; obtaining a CEMF threshold by checking the position of the actual CEMF in the control parameter matrix; using the controller to monitor the actual CEMF; and using the controller to compare the actual CEMF with the threshold, maintaining driving of the stepper motor when the actual CEMF is larger than the threshold, and stopping the stepper motor to maintain the gripping status, when the actual CEMF is smaller than or equal to the threshold. The operation parameters are measured in advance when the stepper motor runs well, which ensures that the objected is stably gripped before abnormality occurs, thus stabilizing the gripping motion.
Gripping System which is Monitored Based on Counter Electromotive Force and a Method for Controlling the Gripping System
A gripping system which is monitored based on CEMF and a method for controlling the same includes: using a controller to instruct a drive unit to rotate a stepper motor; using the controller to compare the control instruction with a control parameter matrix stored in an access unit; obtaining a CEMF threshold by checking the position of the actual CEMF in the control parameter matrix; using the controller to continuously monitor the actual CEMF; and using the controller to compare the actual counter electromotive force with the obtained corresponding counter electromotive force threshold, stopping the stepper motor and letting the gripper maintain the gripping status when the actual counter electromotive force is smaller than or equal to the counter electromotive force threshold, and maintaining driving of the stepper motor when the actual counter electromotive force is larger than the counter electromotive force threshold.
