ABSTRACT:
A signal generator 16 is disclosed. The invention is adapted for use with industrial positioning systems and includes an integrating circuit 22 for integrating an input error signal to provide an output error signal and a limiting circuit 24, connected between the input and output of the integrating circuit 22 for limiting the output error signal. The output error signal is then used in a conventional manner to control a work piece or an implement. The integration of the low level input error signal rapidly increases the power delivered to the positioning system to overcome initial static friction. When the amplitude of the error signal indicates that the industrial apparatus is within a predetermined tolerance, the amplitude of output error signal decreases exponentially to diminish rapidly the power delivered to the positioning system. The apparatus will therefore be positioned within a given tolerance range.
