A servomotor control device includes: a servomotor; a driven body that is driven by way of the servomotor; a connection mechanism that connects the servomotor and the driven body to transmit power of the servomotor to the driven body; and a motor control unit that controls the servomotor, in which the motor control unit includes: a force acquisition section that acquires a drive force acting on the driven body at a connection part between the connection mechanism and the driven body; and a rigidity estimation section that estimates a magnitude of rigidity of the connection mechanism, based on position information of the servomotor and a drive force acquired by the force acquisition section when causing the servomotor to rotate in a state mechanically fixing the driven body.

The invention relates to a method for compensating for positioning inaccuracies of a linear robot, which has a supporting and guiding structure having at least one a support rail with at least one linear guide and a carriage which can be moved on this rail by means of a motor, using a mathematical model of the supporting and guiding structure, which calculates geometric changes to the supporting and guiding structure on the basis of one or more parameters.

A trajectory along which a robot is driven by an actuator is calculated using a first constraint value. A target value of the robot and a second constraint value are used to calculate a target trajectory of the robot. A deflection correction amount of the robot is calculated. The target trajectory is corrected from the deflection correction amount to calculate a deflection correction trajectory. Performance of the actuator necessary to operate the robot based on the deflection correction trajectory is calculated. It is determined whether a first condition that the actuator performance is within a range of the first constraint value and a second condition that a difference between the first constraint value and the actuator performance is within a range of a predetermined value are satisfied. The deflection trajectory is output to the actuator if it is determined that the first condition and the second condition are satisfied.
