Backlash is the most important nonlinearity that limits the performance of speed control in industrial drives, and is an important impediment to position control as well.A simple model based on phase plane analysis is derived for an elastic shaft with internal damping connected to a backlash element. The model is extended to include the case of a flexible coupling partly filled with rubber. Measurements are compared with simulations and found to fit very well.With internal damping, the classical dead zone model predicts nonphysical behavior of the dynamics, a feature that is corrected in the new model.In most industrial systems the backlash appears in closed loop, without direct access to measurements of either the input or the output of the backlash. Typically there is access only to motor speed measurements. In order to design an efficient controller for mechanical drive systems including backlash, it is of benefit to have a good estimate of the backlash gap.A method to identify the backlash gap in speed controlled elastic two-mass systems with backlash is presented. The idea is to inject the same sinewave signal as the motor torque into the mechanical plant, and into the simulation model. By adapting the backlash gap of the model until the measured and the simulated motor speed amplitudes coincide, an estimate of the backlash gap size is obtained. Describing function analysis is used to choose the frequency and amplitude of the input motor torque. The method is fast, has high accuracy, and requires only motor speed measurements.
