Rapid Development and Application of CAN Communication Control for Brushless Motor and Servo Motor

Brushless motors and servo motors were controlled using traditional methods that were slow, inefficient, and often unreliable. However, with the advent of CAN communication technology, everything can change a lot. Now, brushless motors and servo motors can be controlled with high-speed data transmission, accurate position detection, and efficient fault diagnosis capabilities.

Industrial automation has come a long way since the days of traditional motor control methods that were slow, inefficient, and often unreliable. With the advent of CAN communication technology, everything has changed for the better. Now, brushless motors and servo motors can be controlled with high-speed data transmission, accurate position detection, and efficient fault diagnosis capabilities.

Brushless motorrs and Servo motors are widely used in industrial automation due to their high precision control characteristics. The application of CAN communication technology is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

Data transmission: CAN communication technology can realize high-speed and reliable data transmission, which is essential for accurate control of motors.

Position detection: Servo motors require precise position detection to achieve accurate control of their position and speed. CAN communication technology can transmit data collected by position detectors to controllers for processing, thus achieving accurate control of motor position and speed.

Fault diagnosis: CAN communication technology can realize fault diagnosis of motor systems. When a system fails, fault information can be transmitted to controllers for processing through the CAN bus, so as to quickly locate and eliminate system faults.

CAN communication technology has been widely used in brushless motor and servo motor control due to its high-speed data transmission, accurate position detection, and efficient fault diagnosis capabilities. The rapid development method on brushless DC motor (BLDCM) controller based on common actuated circuit and software MATLAB shortens development cycles remarkably while reducing development costs. Sitara microcontrollers (MCUs) and processors (MPUs) address servo drive market trends and new requirements of Industry 4.0 and smart factory systems. PLCs are used as master nodes while CANopen – PROFINET gateways are used as intermediate nodes with motor drivers as slave nodes. Permanent magnet brushless DC motors (PMBLDC) find wide applications in industries due to their high power density and ease of control.

In conclusion, if you’re looking for ways to revolutionize your industrial automation processes with high-speed data transmission, accurate position detection, and efficient fault diagnosis capabilities, then look no further than CAN communication technology. With its ability to provide precise control over servo motors and brushless motors alike, it’s no wonder that it has become such an essential part of modern industrial automation.
