Today, we shall talk about how [Adam Bäckström] took a DS3225 servo and rebuilt it to improve its accuracy, then built a high-precision robot arm with those modified servos to show just how much of an ...
The 1FK7 servo motor from Siemens is developed with field-replaceable encoders that make for quick and easy on-site service with no special tools or recalibration required. Automation World covers the ...
In an increasingly virtual world, the ability to simulate touch provides powerful advantages, such as potentially allowing an online shopper to, “feel” a shirt fabric. Enter the discipline of haptics, ...
Targeting brush motors running at less than 100W with quadrature encoders, the 3C20 digital-motion controller claims a 32-bit or greater precision in position, velocity and acceleration, and jerk ...
For engineers seeking a motor scaled down in size but not power, QuickSilver Controls has extended its Mosolver (portmanteau of “motor” and “resolver”) servo motion actuator into a NEMA 17 frame ...
Encoder specialist POSITAL has expanded its line of kit-style encoders for feedback for servo and stepper motors with new models that utilize the same mounting form factor as incremental kit encoders ...
How do you make things move? You add in a motor that converts electrical energy into motion. That’s a simple idea, but how do you know where the motor is? That’s where the servo motor comes in. By ...
One of the more critical decisions engineers can make when designing any type of motion control process is choosing the motor. Getting the right motor, both in terms of type and size, is imperative to ...
