Motion-control architecture appears to be compact and simple. But in reality, the individual servo loops-current, velocity and position-have been traditionally shared between a drive and a separate ...

Sponsored by Texas Instruments: Single-chip microcontrollers geared to servo and other industrial/EV control applications help engineers cost-effectively design multiple-axis systems. As manufacturing ...

Leading U.S. pharmaceutical manufacturers around the world are using Bosch Packaging’s FLM-Series machines to fill prescription liquids into glass and plastic bottles and vials. Critical to the ...

On this four-axis tray loader, an integrated controller teams up with intelligent servo drives on all four servo motors. In its previous design, this tray loader was also a four-axis machine, but it ...

Disturbance rejection, like command tracking, is usually expressed graphically. The graphs, called disturbance rejection plots, show the effect of PIV gains on disturbance torque applied to the shaft ...

As the global market leader in high-end servo motors and one of the big four industrial robotics companies, Yaskawa Electric has a long-term record of providing its servo control-based solutions to ...

An industry shift to servo controls for backhoes was one equipment manufacturer JCB bought into. The softer pushing and reduced arm throws required on servo controls led to a reduction in operator ...

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 ...

Robots are cool, so check out [Atlin Anderson]’s Spiderbot (video, embedded below) which can be made with 3D printed parts, hobby servos, and ESP32-CAM module for control and a first-person view.

Hobbyists, developers and electronic enthusiasts searching for an easy way to control up to 12 servos from a PlayStation 4 controller may be interested in a new piece of hardware called the ServoShock ...

An accelerometer-based active vibration-control system for CNC machine tools is designed to improve machining productivity by maximizing material removal rate (MRR), with the result that tool-head ...
