Patent attributes
An actuator control system can include a plurality of electro-mechanical actuators for operating one or more end effectors, a plurality of position sensors associated with the plurality of electro-mechanical actuators, each of the plurality of positions sensors providing an output indicating an actual position value, and a control system. The control system can be configured to receive an activation command signal and the position sensor outputs, and send a speed command for each of the plurality of electro-mechanical actuators and adjust the speed command of each of the plurality of electro-mechanical actuators using a mean position value based on the actual position values to synchronize movement of the plurality of electro-mechanical actuators together.
