• Sizing load and motor correctly makes proper performance
possible.
• Inertia mismatch should not exceed 10:1.
• System tuning requires practice.

as the steady state error was zero by the time that the drill entered
the workpiece this would be of no consequence. System tuning is an
acquired skill. In the case of servo systems the rapid response makes
tuning much easier than would be the case with process control,
where response times can be of the order of hours.
