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 ...
Almost everyone who is involved with 3D printing thinks to themselves at some point, “this could all be done using a closed-loop system and DC motors”. Or at least everyone we know. There’s even one ...
A growing number of manufacturers are saving time and money by testing, diagnosing and even repairing servo motors in-house. We look at the expanded role of encoder test systems and present one ...
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, ...
It is an engineering truism that there is no such thing as a perfect solution—just the best solution for the problem at hand. That holds particularly true for servo motors and stepper motors. Both are ...
Industrial automation specialist Inovance provided visitors at SPS 2025 in Nuremberg, Germany, with the European preview of its INO AIR real-time servo control solution featuring wireless technology.
Kollmorgen has released a new servo drive and motor, designed to simplify motion system development and speed up time to market.<br /><br /> ...
TE Connectivity is aiming at servo motor manufacturers with a range of connectors for different types of electric motors. “Trends in motor connectivity focus on miniaturisation, reduction of ...
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) defines a servo device as “an adjustable-speed AC power drive system that includes an AC motor integrated by feedback, a converter, and control, ...
A motor-drive servo amplifier's output voltage has a fundamental frequency and amplitude that corresponds to the motor speed, torque, and number of motor poles. PWM amplifiers, by their nature, also ...
