I tried building a motor-gearbox model as an element of the manipulator using ADAMS/Machinery.
In my system, the input is voltage or current or torque (can be calculated ) to the motor, and output is motion.
The simulation works well, however, these elements (especially gear transmission element) makes the simulation slow even if I use 'Coupler' gear pair as a gear model.
In my case, the moment of inertia of the motor rotor should be under consideration.
But don't need to analyze contact force and friction between teeth of the gear in detail.
Also, the torque vs speed curve (I have) is necessary to consider to reproduce the motor output limitation.
But don't need to consider any other electrical performance characteristics (e.g. inductance, efficiency...).
Do you have ideas to reproduce the motor and gear transmission without using ADMAS/Machinery?
