Industrial linear motors offer design engineers the possibility of constructing machines in new ways. Fast, simple, and flexible, linear motors are easy to install and in many cases come with ...

Vice President Copley Controls Corp. Canton, Mass. Historically, industry has depended on ball screws, belt drives, and pneumatic mechanisms for automation’s positioning tasks. But the rising demand ...

The NanoPWM switching PWM servo drives provide better performance than linear servo drives, are significantly more compact and robust while lower in cost. “Based on a proprietary and unique technology ...

Proportional integral derivative (PID) control is a common method used to regulate the dynamic behavior of a system. Examples are found in many industrial devices, where it’s employed for control of ...

The combination of the latest Servo Motor designs, extremely flexible robots and an eclectic mix of other advanced technologies are the key factors driving the rapid growth of new fabrication ...

Valve-controlled asymmetric cylinder is widely used in servo loading system. As a kind of typical electro-hydraulic servo system (EHSS), it inherently has the characteristics such as high order ...

What do you get when you cross a glue stick with a hobby servo motor? A linear actuator, of course! Although this could be done with other household implements, the form factor of this glue stick ...

Dunkermotor, now part of AMETEK Precision Motion Control, has released its first ServoTube linear motors and actuators catalog with technical specifications and drawings that cover 1,346 standard ...

Unhappy with the 120 degree range of movement for this digital servo motor [Malte] set out to expand its flexibility. He settled upon a hack that alters the feedback potentiometer in order to give the ...

Stepper motors are often used for positioning since they are cost-effective, easy to drive, and can be used in open-loop systems—meaning that they don’t require position feedback like servo motors.
