The Festo CMMT-ST servo drive starter kit for control engineers and programmers promises a smart, low-cost way to learn how ...

This interaction is closed loop, as the drive constantly monitors the position and velocity of the motor and reacts accordingly. In the past, servo drives relied on specialized communications media ...

Usually, when you want a servo motor, you simply buy one already made. But if you need something unusual, you can turn any DC motor into a custom servo you can control just like [Dejan] did.

Automate inspection for doors and panels Successful CNC automation isn’t just about machining parts. It’s about optimizing ...

These features make them suited for three-phase inverter drive applications such as electronically commutated (EC) fans in AI data centers, heat pumps, commercial HVAC systems, servo motors, robotics, ...

Servo8bit is a library for AVR microcontrollers that allows you to drive servo motors without the need for a 16-bit timer. Obviously, this is quite useful for smaller chips that only have 8-bit ...

The Japanese robot and drives manufacturer Yaskawa has launched a pair of product families designed to enhance the safety capabilities of its Σ-X (sigma ten) AC servodrives, which were launched in ...

Harmonic Drive Systems Inc. produces and sells precision control equipment and components worldwide. It offers speed reducers, rotary actuators, linear actuators, AC servo motors, and other ...
