When it comes to choosing the optimal power supply for a servo motor, the dc supply is often an afterthought, and that can be a recipe for motion-control surprises-of the kind you don't want. The ...

Elmo Motion Control, leaders in the military motion control arena for over 30 years, has enhanced its standard hornet military servo drives for applications requiring very high-power pulses out of a ...

This article was updated April 11, 2023. It was originally published March 1, 2000. To help engineers and design teams get all the performance possible from servo systems, here are some of the more ...

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 ...

That corresponds to a servo power density of more than 4000 W in only 8.7 cubic centimeters (0.53 cubic inch). In addition to its servo performance and its small size, the unit operates from -40 to + ...

The automation engineers of the 1960s would look with envy at the servo technology in use today. Small, precise, and, above all, electric, they are a reflection of the compactness of the semiconductor ...
