In this paper, a DC servo motor position control system based on acceleration control is proposed. The proposed control system consists of an acceleration controller and an auto-tuqing fuzzy PID controller. The auto-tuning fuzzy PID controller provides corrections for an acceleration reference to remove the effect of parametric uncertainties. And it comprises of the expert system which performs the automatic tuning of the PID controller parameters and the conventional PID controller. Expermental results demonstrate strate thi~tth e proposed overall control system has robust properties and good control performances with regard to unmeasurable disturbances and parameter variations. Therefore, the proposed control scheme enhances the applicability of an acceleration control approach and especially performs accurate position control under such an operating environment that model uncertainties exist and/or load, etc. change significantly.
