Abstract:
1. A servo control apparatus comprising: a motor, receiving an application voltage to drive a drive subject, the motor including a motor shaft, the motor for driving a drive subject; a detecting section that detects a rotation position of the motor shaft; and a controller configured to generate a motor torque command for the motor using the rotation position; wherein the controller includes: a reaction torque estimating module configured to estimate reaction torque to be exerted on the motor shaft by the drive subject, by using the rotation position and a moment of inertia of the drive subject; a command torque estimating module configured to estimate command torque to be generated around the motor shaft, by using the rotation position and an application voltage on the motor; a drive torque estimating module configured to estimate drive torque to act on the drive subject, by using the rotation position and a moment of inertia of the motor; a disturbance observer configured to estimate friction torque occurring in the vicinity of the motor shaft on the basis of the estimated reaction torque, the estimated command torque and the estimated drive torque; and the disturbance observer is configured to generate a compensation voltage to be added to the application voltage on the basis of the friction torque.
