For our engg. project we are developing a pilotless dc vehicle - which will follow a magnetic tape on ground. vehicle will have 2 bldc motors + a magnetic tape reader + 2 swivel casters at back. vehicle will run on differential.
As a first step we need to control a bldc motor [which has a encoder also] with a plc command.
do we need a PID control for this or can we just use scaling for this control - plc will give control voltage of 0 to 5volt through analog card. and this will control the rpm of motor with a range from 0 to 2500rpm. the encoder meanwhile will give 18pulses/rev.
once we control each of these 2 bldc motors that we will hook up the magnetic tape reader with these 2 motors. to keep vehicle on track.
we are using a delta plc.
look forward to suggestions.
cheers !!!
