Abstract

Iterative learning control (ILC) enables a perfect compensation for systems that perform the same task over and over again. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate practical applicability of two various state-of-the-art ILC algorithms to point-to-point positioning systems. A simple Frequency domain ILC approach is exploited focusing on systems with exactly repeating motion tasks. Furthermore, flexible ILC is employed to enable learning also for non-repeating tasks. Particular steps providing a seamless transfer from theory and algorithms to practical implementation in a real-time environment by means of industrial-grade SW and HW are given. They may serve as a practical example of a workflow suitable for a wide range of motion control applications. Potential benefits of the learning-type control in comparison with conventional feedback and feedforward control are discussed as well.
