Motion Profiles: Hacked S-curve | trapezoidal motion profile+ low pass filter, T-Curve (part 4)

🚀 Motion Profiles Explained: T-Curve with Low Pass Filter (Part 4) 🤖

Welcome back to the next part of our Motion Profile Series! In this episode, we dive into the concept of T-Curves with Low Pass Filters, a critical component used in many Japanese servo systems to smooth out motion profiles for more precise and controlled movement.

📌 What You’ll Learn:
Why Use a Low Pass Filter with T-Curves?

Understand how sharp transitions in motion profiles can cause unwanted vibrations and inaccuracies.
Learn how low pass filters help smooth motion by reducing sharp edges and preventing sudden changes.
Applications in Robotics and Motion Control:

Discover why FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filters are commonly used to avoid DC offset issues and maintain long-term precision.
Explore the differences between FIR and IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) filters and why precision applications prefer FIR.
Real-World Examples and Industry Insights:

See how windowing and moving averages create smoother motion profiles.
Learn from real-life examples in semiconductor manufacturing and servo control systems.
Pros and Cons of Low Pass Filters:

Pros: Simple, cost-effective, and easy to implement.
Cons: Can introduce phase lag and may require compensations to match original profiles.
🛠️ Key Takeaways:
T-Curves with low pass filters are effective for smoothing motion without requiring complex or expensive solutions.
Understand how filtering affects motion precision, and how to manage trade-offs between sharpness and smoothness.
Learn how to balance simplicity and performance in motion control applications.
