Servo Motor Control & Its Uses. Part 2

Servo controls are widely used as wind turbine pitch control too. The wind turbine pitch control system are used for changing the frequency of the rotor blades in a wind power system or a wind mill that works with the real wind speed in order to adjust the output power attaining the highest utilization efficiency of the wind power and thus providing a protection for the rotor blades. The servomotors are used as the pitch control for the wind turbines.  

There are three different types of servo motors that are normally used in the modern servo systems. These are:

  • AC servo motors – These motors are based on the induction motor designs
  • DC servo motors – These are based on the DC motor design
  • AC brushless servo motors – These are based on the synchronous motor designs
  
The servo motors provide a motion profile that is a set of commands programmed in a controller which defines the operation of the servo motors in regards to velocity, position and time. Servo motion control makes the robotic devices and other such devices work with utmost precision.
