Motion-control architecture appears to be compact and simple. But in reality, the individual servo loops-current, velocity and position-have been traditionally shared between a drive and a separate ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced Renesas’ highest-perfomance RZ/T2M motor control ...

There are two types of motion control engineers: Those who are comfortable tuning a servo loop, and those who aren't. The latter basically, have two options. The first is to use a non-servo device ...

As manufacturing industry continues to replace manual processes with automated versions, servo motors are replacing pneumatic and hydraulic systems (Fig. 1). It’s resulted in a rapid increase in, and ...

Faster, smaller, and smarter is the mantra of today's servo-controlled machines. As a result, end users have come to expect more and better performance, forcing designers to continuously improve ...

Just over a decade ago, an article titled, "Advanced Control Strategies Move into the Field" (Control, October 2008), highlighted three evolving trends in the process control world that would "make ...

The importance of motor trajectory profiles and how they’re used in brushless DC (BLDC) motor control to minimize vibration and smooth out other performance issues. Why the PID loop is the most widely ...
