One of the more critical decisions engineers can make when designing any type of motion control process is choosing the motor. Getting the right motor, both in terms of type and size, is imperative to ...

Engineers who work in motion control often start out using a relatively simple approach involving stepper motors to synthesize moves. Steppers are appealing in that their controllers can be simple and ...

While current control and PWM switching play the most direct role in driving brushless DC motors, the motion profile and ...

Servos have played a key role in shaping the landscape of motion control systems, enabling new levels of accuracy, precision and dynamism. With cycle times measured in microseconds and the ability to ...
