Active steering system and method thereof, and method of seeking a balance point

摘要

An active steering system and method thereof include a drive source, a steering roller, a steering motor, a steering controller, a belt edge sensor, and a main controller. The steering roller adjusts a belt in a widthwise direction, which is rotated by the drive source. The steering motor drives the steering roller, and the steering controller controls the steering motor. The belt edge sensor detects a belt edge signal according to a position of the belt in the widthwise direction. The main controller controls the drive source and/or the steering controller where the belt is rotated based on a balance point at which an amount of change of at least one value of the belt edge signal and a step number of the steering motor is less than or equal to a predetermined value.
