Design Features

  • Aerotech Motion Simulator is built on the A3200 Motion Composer libraries
  • User-friendly Windows-based graphical user interface
  • Operate 1-, 2- or 3-axis motion simulators
  • Graphical motion profile PVAT (Position, Velocity, Acceleration, Time) importing
  • PVAT GUI profile generation and editing
  • Position Synchronized Output (PSO) for real-time event triggering
  • Trajectory tracking from analog inputs
  • Frequency response mode allows an input motion sine sweep and measures the customer device frequency response to the input excitation
  • Iterative Learning minimizes position error
  • GUI remote client-server mode allows parallel processing capabilities and control via Ethernet network
  • Harmonic Cancellation optimizes motion position errors generated by sinusoidal motion
  • No dependence on third-party motion controller, amplifier or software suppliers

Aerotech Motion Simulator – The Integrated, Easy to Use, Graphical Trajectory Generation, Data Analysis, and Enhanced Machine Performance Toolkit

  • Learning algorithms designed to reduce position error between runs let the system improve the move and settle results.
  • Profile Mode allows users to import an existing trajectory from MATLAB® or other programs consisting of position, velocity, and/or acceleration state vectors from an external file to simplify profile input.
  • Plot trajectories and use analysis tools in the time or frequency domain to give detailed motion evaluation.
  • Create and modify multi-axis trajectories using predefined building blocks to provide rapid motion prototyping.
  • Overlap multiple runs of a trajectory to easily see how program changes modify the motion.
  • Create and export a trajectory to an AeroBasic™ program for optimized motion function. These saved functions can be combined to run complex motion simulations.
  • Perform data analysis such as FFT, max, min, and rms from an existing trajectory for diagnosing system performance.
  • If customers prefer, our motion controllers do have LabVIEW®, Microsoft .NET, or C drivers along with sample code for easy programming in familiar development environments.
  • Data input file formats include Excel, CSV, or MATLAB®. If only partial trajectory information is known, such as position versus time or acceleration versus time, Motion Simulator can calculate the other required state variables.
