Motor control apparatus generating command limited by motor torque

A motor control apparatus controlling a motor connected to a movable body as a driving source to linearly move the movable body, the control apparatus comprising:

• a detection unit configured to detect a motor rotational frequency;
• a storage unit configured to store an allowable torque which is a maximum torque that the motor can output at the motor rotational frequency detected by the detection unit, a first torque offset which is a torque generated in a direction opposite to a moving direction of the movable body, a second torque offset which is a torque generated in one direction regardless of the moving direction of the movable body, a rotor inertia moment of the motor, a load inertia moment, and a conversion factor for converting a motor rotation angle in rotary motion of the motor to a moving distance in linear motion of the movable body;
• and
• an acceleration calculation unit configured to calculate an acceleration command of the motor for each moving direction of the movable body and each acceleration operation and deceleration operation of a rotor of the motor using the allowable torque, the first torque offset, the second torque offset, the rotor inertia moment, the load inertia moment, and the conversion factor.
