Motor-SW-Launch Service

// The seamless SW deployment by employing professional parametrization.

 

Motor-SW-Launch Service

In the early phase of development with a software library, the deployment on real hardware can reveal unexpected errors. However, with our sophisticated premium testing and adaption service, we can accelerate this process and detect issues in electronics, motor and achievements of target operational points.

This service include an electronics review, a professional motor identification, a motor analysis, the software parametrization and performance testing with real target hardware. The Motor-SW-Launch (MSL) service facilitates the initiation of series development by employing professional software parametrization for customer's motor and electronics.

Service/Price: Package Deal for standard price

Duration: ~3 weeks

Deliveries: electronics report, motor parameter report, analysis report, parametrized embedded software (.hex-file) and performance report

Motor-SW-Launch Service

 

Facilitate series development by employing professional software parameterization for customer’s electronics and motor.

// Simulate performance and boundaries of system

By simulation the efficiency and analysis whether target operation points can be reached, customer gets a better understanding of their desired system and potential weaknesses. This also allows to define the necessary algorithms such as field weakening to achieve the best system performance and ensure that target operation points can be reached.

// Saving time-to-market

Start immediately your evaluation with a software which has been parametrized to the specific of your application. Avoid to first read user manuals and taking weeks to understand design errors which causing unexpected behavior.

// Avoid trial & errors in parametrization of motors

In the parametrization of the software towards a certain motor, the identification of the correct motor values (e.g. Id/Iq) causing most of the troubles in mechatronic systems. It is crucial to understand both software and motor design in order to define which parameters are needed and how the are measured. MOTEON's motor identification test bench, allows the correct measurement, is reproduceable, avoid trial & error approach and the implementation to include "factors" to overcome design flaws.

// Identify design issues in early phase of the project

The selection of the wrong ICs or resistor can cause strange behavior in the performance and software. In addition, the motor or system design might not support the achievement of the efficiency or operation targets. A root cause analysis during a later stage in the project costs weeks and months and can result in fixing symptoms instead solving the root cause.
