Here is how to implement a stepper motor to sense position and actively correct any error that might accrue during actuation.

This application note describes the Zilog Motor Control Technologies presenting the motor control strategies, the control strategy by motor type, as well as the Open- vs. Closed-loop speed control and ...

MLA linear actuators from AMP offer comprehensive list of options with StepSERVO™ integrated motors or standard steppers ...

In 2012, Automation World published an article looking at the decision factors faced when choosing electric or pneumatic actuators. More than a decade later, manufacturing engineers and OEMs still ...

Every plant in the process industry most likely has several control loops that do not perform well. Although there are many factors that may negatively affect control loop performance, a few of these ...

This White Paper will explain the three methods that are used to close the feedback loop around stepper motors in a control system. These three methods include ways to close the loop around a stepper ...

The possible advantage of hybrid closed-loop therapy (i.e., artificial pancreas) over sensor-augmented pump therapy in very young children with type 1 diabetes is unclear. In this multicenter, ...

Building a 3D motor printed motor is one thing, but creating a completely custom servo motor with encoder requires some significant engineering. In the video after the break [365 Robots] takes us ...

Currently, one closed-loop system, the Medtronic MiniMed 670G, is in commercial use in the United States, but randomized trials are needed to assess its efficacy and safety. 8 Such a system, which ...
