I saw the movie and I do not quite agree that it can not be realized on an asynchronous motor. In practice, every day I deal with this type of application, namely the electronic encoder in the form of an encoder gives signals to the module of high-speed counters, and from the analogue output of PLC the signal enters the analogue input of the inverter as a reference of speed. But that's another issue, without a PLC it would also be able to do as it was written above with this frequency input (if the inverter has such a function).
The thing, however, is the appropriate control of the asynchronous motor by the inverter. Ordinary vector control will definitely not work in the case of high load (eg keeping the eccentric press in the preset position - I am talking about it from my own autopsy), eg DTC with ABB (eg ACS800) is required. I have tried with the usual vector control for this application and without access to advanced functions of the regulator there is no chance for the correct operation of such a system (and access to these functions does not guarantee success). Of course, we're talking about sensorless control, without an encoder on the motor shaft. Certainly, the accuracy of the regulation is not ideal in this case, but in some applications a normal induction motor has a chance to check.
In the conveyor belt application, I think that the above oleksy19 solution should (theoretically) be checked.
