ABSTRACT:
A system (11) for monitoring and controlling the movement of a mass (12) along a predetermined path (14) by a motor-driven flexible member (20) is provided to modulate the motor drive output so that the actual velocity of the mass corresponds more closely to the desired target velocity profile. The system preferably employs a dual loop servo system wherein an outer servo loop uses conventional linear encoding techniques and is supplemented by an inner servo loop utilizing a sensor (27) that detects a physical characteristic of the flexible member representative of the relative velocity of the mass. Relative velocity transducers utilizing magnetic circuits and operating according to variable reluctance principles for generating relative mass velocity signals directly are disclosed.
