Drift

Drift

A slow change in some characteristic of a device. For a drive, it is the deviation from the initial set speed with no load change over a specific time period. Normally the drive must be operated for a specified warm-up duration at a specified ambient temperature before drift specifications apply. Drift is normally caused by random changes in operating characteristics of various control components.
