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.

A quadrature encoder provides a way to let hardware read movement (and direction) of a shaft, and they can be simple, effective, and inexpensive devices. But [Paulo Marques] observed that when it ...

As usual, the needs of the application play a major role in determining which is the best type of motor to use. As the shift to automation continues to gain momentum in the industrial sector, servo ...

Design engineers turn to linear motors for applications that demand speed, accuracy and reliability. From high-throughput ...
