Abstract

Abstract A method and apparatus providing compensation for an error or deviation occuring in numerical control apparatus having a servocontrol system, wherein a command signal quantity and a compensating signal quantity are applied simultaneously to a pulse motor connected to drive a movable machine element. The compensating signal quantity is obtained from a summing device which combines the command signal quantity, a signal generated in proportion to the actual velocity of the movable machine element, and a deviation signal generated in proportion to the command signal quantity. The deviation signal is provided by a deviation setting circuit so as to vary linearly in relation to a command velocity determined by the command signal quantity during the time the command is issued so that continuous path control of the movable element can be carried out accurately.
