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 ...

Magnetic-free dual-coil technology can create a high-resolution, precise, and reliable solution for motor position sensors used in robotics, industrial, and medical devices. The need for accuracy and ...

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 ...

The benefits of a dual inductive rotary sensor. How inductive position sensors are designed to improve motor precision, motor control, and motor performance in industrial applications and requirements ...

Renesas Electronics has developed an inductive position sensor (IPS) technology for highly accurate motor position sensor ICs for robotics, industrial and medical applications. Utilising non-contact ...

Why are there so many different angle encoders on the market? Why do they use different scanning and measuring methods? And which one should a designer choose? To answer those questions, engineers at ...

Before the digital age, when transistors were expensive, unreliable, and/or nonexistent, engineers had to use other tricks to do things that we take for granted nowadays. Motor positioning, for ...
