Research on Vibration Suppression for Industrial Robots Based on Dynamic Feedforward Control

Abstract

To address the challenges of low position tracking accuracy and high vibrations in mechanical arms controlled by PID closed-loop systems, this paper introduces a torque feedforward control scheme based on dynamic models. The paper initially analyzes the causes of vibrations during robot motion, establishing a mathematical model to quantify the trajectory accuracy and repeatability of vibrations. Subsequently, a torque feedforward control scheme based on dynamic models is designed, and its feasibility is theoretically analyzed. In this motion control scheme, precise dynamic models are utilized to calculate and output the desired torque. The torque values are then converted into motor current values, which are superimposed on the control output of the current loop in the servo to achieve real-time torque compensation. Finally, through simulation experiments, the paper validates that the dynamics-based torque feedforward control effectively suppresses robot vibrations, enhances tracking accuracy, and improves dynamic performance. The findings demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed control strategy in addressing the challenges associated with PID-controlled robotic arm systems.
