Motor Torque (gains)

Engineer on team #405 from Richmond Community High and Infineon Technologies.



Hi All,

I have a Q about increasing the current to the motors. We are using a van door motor connected to an "arm" the pushes down the bridge. We need to get a little more "umph" from our motor. Is there a parameter (gain) that I can adjust to increase the torque? Are the gains defaulted at 100% to begin with?
We are also physically cutting off 4" from the arm to decrease the resistance to the motor. TIA

Alex
