1. Design for system. It is important to understand the accuracy requirements of the entire electromechanical system when specifying servo drives. The control system, position feedback sensing, the ...

Today’s servo systems depend on accurate, consistent feedback to maintain position, control speed, and execute complex motion ...

When evaluating a motion control system, an integrated approach with hardware and software can be a consideration. More complexity can add to potential points of failure and increased integration ...

Electromechanical motion control systems have competed with hydraulic systems for years. But environmental factors, improved performance, and even physics have pushed electrical control into the ...

Feedforward control represents an essential strategy in modern motion systems, where anticipated disturbances and system dynamics are counteracted by pre-calculated control inputs. This proactive ...

As with nearly any actuation technology in industrial automation applications, there is no shortage of opinions around the use of electric or pneumatic motion control. These predilections tend to get ...
