The present study discusses a design method for controlling a twin-motor system, where a shaft is actuated by two direct-current (DC) motors. In order to optimize controller parameters such that the trajectory of the rotation speed of the shaft follows that of the reference model, fictitious reference iterative tuning (FRIT) is used. To decide the controller parameters of a two-input one-output system using FRIT, the system is designed as a dual-rate system. Finally, the designed controller parameters are applied to an experimental setup, and its effectiveness is demonstrated.
