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 ...

For engineers seeking a motor scaled down in size but not power, QuickSilver Controls has extended its Mosolver (portmanteau of “motor” and “resolver”) servo motion actuator into a NEMA 17 frame ...

Mini 24 V Servo Actuator with Dual Absolute Encoder and Panel Mount Connectors Dual Absolute encoder versions of the FHA-C from Electromate feature BiSS-C bi-directional communication for both ...

Quantum Devices Inc. recently announced a new series of miniature incremental optical encoders. Each of the encoders in the QM22 series has a 22-mm diameter and 12.4-mm thickness. According to the ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Rotary encoders track motor shaft movement for myriad pieces of industrial equipment and commercial devices. For ...

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, ...

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 ...

The leading and longest established online Process Engineering publication serving the Process Manufacturing Industries ...

Rotary encoders convert rotary movement or angular position into analogue or digital signals for use in measurement or control systems. They can be classified in a number of ways, primarily by the ...

Every encoder-based motion-control axis, such as a servo motor or step motor, must know where it is to be accurate. If it doesn’t, it will never reach its target position. But the encoder must first ...
