A motor apparatus and a motor control method are provided. The method includes the following steps. An actual speed and an actual current of a motor module are sensed by a sensor module. An adjusted speed is kept at a set speed or a speed curve by a speed adjusting circuit. A control signal is provided by a feedback control circuit according to a difference between the adjusted speed and the actual speed. The control signal is converted to a current to drive the motor module, such that the actual speed is kept at the adjusted speed. When the actual speed is decreased and the actual current is increased to a limited current value, a setting parameter of the feedback controller is changed according to the limited current value, such that the control signal enters a saturation state and the actual current is kept at the limited current value.

The present disclosure relates to systems and processes for controlling the relative positions or phasing of advancing substrates and/or components in absorbent article converting lines. The systems and methods may utilize feedback from technologies, such as vision systems, sensors, remote input and output stations, and controllers with synchronized embedded clocks to accurately correlate component placement detections and placement control on an absorbent article converting process. The systems and methods may accurately apply the use of precision clock synchronization for both instrumentation and control system devices on a non-deterministic communications network. In turn, the clock synchronized control and instrumentation network may be used to control the substrate position. As such, the controller may be programmed to the relative positions of substrates and components along the converting line without having to account for undeterminable delays.

The invention relates to a self-learning repetitive method for an electrical drive or motor, in particular a linear or slewing drive, for determining the maximum speed during the movement of the actuator between a starting point (SP) and an end point (EP), wherein the actuator is accelerated to a speed v.sub.max over a first distance (x.sub.beschl), is braked over a second distance (x.sub.brems) and is then moved at a safe low speed (v.sub.safe) over a third distance (x.sub.safe) as far as the stop and is stopped. The method is repeated with the aim of minimizing the third distance (x.sub.Safe,min) and thereby achieving the maximum speed (BPmax, v.sub.max). The method also provides for taking into account the external interfering influences, for example external forces and friction. The invention also relates to such an electrical drive.

Methods and systems for selecting a velocity profile for controlling a robotic device are provided. An example method includes receiving via an interface a selection of a robotic device to control, and receiving via the interface a request to modify a velocity profile of the robotic device. The velocity profile may include information associated with changes in velocity of the robotic device over time. The method may further include receiving a selected velocity profile, receiving an input via the interface, and determining a velocity command based on the selected velocity profile and the input. In this manner, changes in velocity of the robotic device may be filtered according to a velocity profile selected via the interface.
