Abstract

This paper concerns design and realization of programmable emulator of mechanical loads for motors. The aim of this paper is to build integrated test equipment, which will allow realistic testing of drive parameters and mainly quality of control structures on controlling different kinds of loads. For this purpose create user-friendly software which will allow emulation of physical system in real-time using xPC Target under Matlab 6.1.
