Abstract
Aspects of the present invention provide a tool for simulating a motion control system that simulates performance and energy for a given configuration. The simulation analysis considers a motion profile and one or more corresponding performance parameters, and the resulting configuration provides hardware elements, such as drives and motors, and settings of those elements. The simulation allows optimization for energy efficiency, as opposed to only speed or accuracy.
