Summary:A rotary drive for a medical device (10) includes a rotary motor (14) including a rotor (26). A rotary motion encoder (34) is connected to the rotor. The rotary motion encoder is configured to generate a number of encoder steps measuring a rotational distance of the rotor. At least one electronic processor (18) is programmed to determine at least one of a slippage value of the rotary motor measured during motor operation and a coasting value of the rotary motor measured after stopping motor operation based on comparison of an actual count of encoder steps and an expected count of encoder steps.
