Direct drives place rigorous demands on position-signal quality. Optimum measuring signals increase the quality of the machined workpiece surface, reduce vibration in the machine frame, stop excessive ...

Myriad applications require custom torque motors — including hard-machining table drives, mirror millers, and measuring and grinding machines. In fact, machine builders for these applications are now ...

We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rotate ...

The type 34B4/FV-F INTEGRAmotor gearmotor combines a brushless dc motor, a high-torque gearhead, a PWM speed control, and an optical encoder. The motor provides 1/4 hp (187 W) and up to 341 lb-in. (39 ...

Gearless drives, also known as direct drives, are used in the elevator technology for their high torque at low rotation frequencies and their smooth and silent operation. Gearless drives, also known ...

Position encoders are sensors that, when used in industrial settings, produce critical motor information such as speed and position. The encoder delivers data for display or data that may serve as ...

New stepper motors, encoders and inertia dampers have been added to the SureStep® system of step motor control. New stepper motors, encoders and inertia dampers have been added to the SureStep® system ...

The new SilverPak 23DE, an integrated Nema 23, High Torque, 1.8° bipolar step motor, microstepping driver and encoder is designed to reduce overall design time and system cost for a wide array of step ...

The high-efficiency, zero-slip Sinochron motors feature encoder-free motion control and a 0.25- to 10-kW rating. Exceeding EPACT 1 (Energy Policy Act) efficiency in fractional-horsepower sizes, the ...

Given the rise of automated production and logistics operations, expectations for motion control components have reached new levels. Precise, controlled, robust motion is a must for today’s robotics, ...

PI's M-122 palm-top-sized precision translation stage combines high dynamics & speed, very compact dimensions and high accuracy at a very competitive price PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P. — a leading ...
