A system for manufacturing an industrial automation drive includes a carrier frame configured to hold one or more semiconductor devices for use in the industrial automation drive. The carrier frame includes a set of fasteners disposed around an internal wall of the carrier frame such that each fastener of the set of fasteners includes an angled edge and a horizontal edge. Each fastener of the set of fasteners is configured to toollessly couple a power circuit board having the semiconductor devices to the carrier frame by bending from a first position when the power circuit board is pushed against the angled edge and returning to the first position when the power circuit board is pushed past the horizontal edge.

A method for generating electrical frequencies of a alternating current motor is disclosed wherein a torque current command signal, a d-axis voltage command signal and a d-axis voltage feedback signal are combined to generate the stator electrical frequency in the synchronous reference frame. The method also provides an estimate of the rotor electrical frequency as well as of the motor speed. The frequency generator is preferably incorporated in a variable frequency motor controller for driving a motor at desired speeds independent of changing load conditions. The generator permits the controller to maintain field oriented control without the need for speed sensing and feedback.

A method and apparatus for controlling an AC motor are described wherein a frequency generator is configured to generate a signal representative of the stator electrical frequency and to estimate the rotor electrical frequency of the motor during operation. The generator operates on torque and flux current reference signals and on d-axis voltage reference and feedback signals to determine the electrical frequencies. The generator ramps up gain values applied to the torque current reference signals and to a voltage error signals representative of the difference between the d-axis voltage reference and feedback signals during a startup phase of operation to enhance performance and stability of the drive during this phase. The generator includes feedforward and feedback portions that contribute components of the final stator frequency signal. The components are filtered differently during startup and running phases of operation to provide the desired frequency signals.
