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 ...

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In the seemingly endless quest for higher motor performance and improved system cost efficiencies, motor manufacturers ...

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 ...

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 ...

In robotics, movements must be precise and well-controlled. As robots are asked to do more as industry becomes more familiar with the technology, there will be an increasing need for high accuracy ...
