Encoders are the most widely used feedback devices for electric motor control, capable of delivering precise position and speed feedback for closed-loop performance. With numerous technology options ...

In addition to motors and controllers, a rotary encoder is the third essential module in the software and hardware for closed loop applications. In addition to motors and controllers, a rotary encoder ...

Is your motor spinning at the intended rate? Closed-loop motor control systems continue to answer this question, as there tends to be a closed-loop system implemented wherever a motor spins. Whether ...

With a Plug & Drive PD2-N integrated closed loop stepping motor, Nanotec expanded its offering of integrated stepper motors with closed loop sine commutation. With a Plug & Drive PD2-N integrated ...

Encoder specialist POSITAL has expanded its line of kit-style encoders for feedback for servo and stepper motors with new models that utilize the same mounting form factor as incremental kit encoders ...

I have some questions about the EPICS driver of the MicroNix stage. However, in practice, the motor resolution and encoder resolution are different. Shouldn’t the motor resolution and encoder ...

Zaber's new closed-loop linear stage, the X-LRM-DE, has hardened steel construction and recirculating ball bearing guides, which provide thermal stability and exceptional stiffness. The integrated ...

Abstract: Sinusoidal position transducers provide accurate and reliable representation of the mechanical position of their shafts. The sine/cosine transducers signals may be used in open loop or ...

One of the bigger problems with any CNC machine or 3D printer is the issue of missed steps when moving the toolhead. If a stepper motor misses a step, the entire layer of the print – and every layer ...
