 Abstract   
This paper deals with the self-commissioning of electric drives. To improve the performance of the available industrial drives, an on-line auto-tuning based on a hybrid genetic algorithm is proposed. This strategy integrates the simplex method, local searcher, in a genetic framework, global searcher, in order to speed up the convergence. Moreover it is very reliable because experimentally tests each possible solution and consequently the final result is not affected by the accuracy of the motor model. Finally, the proposed on-line hybrid optimization can be embedded as a fully-automated tool without any extra-hardware on industrial drives. Extensive experimental results prove the effectiveness of the proposed approach not only in comparison with conventional commissioning, but also when compared with further accurate handcalibration.
