Abstract:
With regard to the important role of motors and transmissions in the performance of electromechanical and robotic systems, this paper intends to provide a solution for the problem of selection of these components for a general load case. Appropriate objectives are formulated, and by the use of them, a procedure is suggested to compare the performance of different motors for a specified task. Moreover, considering different limitations, the range for feasible transmission ratios is analytically obtained and suggestions for choosing a transmission ratio from this range, and if available, motor torque constant, are provided. As a case study, the methods are applied to the problem of actuator design for a legged robot.
