National Instruments (Nasdaq:NATI) today announced the latest version of the NI SoftMotion Development Module for LabVIEW, the revolutionary software that empowers machine builders and original ...

Promising to simplify the design of multi-axis drives using servo and stepper motors, the Copley Motion Objects (CMOs) library works with LabVIEW graphical programming software to eliminate the need ...

It is an engineering truism that there is no such thing as a perfect solution—just the best solution for the problem at hand. That holds particularly true for servo motors and stepper motors. Both are ...

[Frank Herrmann] had an interesting idea to turn a geared DC motor into a servo motor assembly, but with a stepper motor-like interface. By stacking some small PCBs behind the motor body, it was ...

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

Motor controllers in general and especially closed-loop controllers have come a very long way in the past few years. Control flexibility, adaptability, and strategies that were only dreamed of or very ...

Sensorless control of stepper motors, in which the speed of the rotor is determined through a virtual encoder within the controller, is possible, claims German firm Nanotec. “This enables the stepper ...

As the shift to automation continues to gain momentum in the industrial sector, servo motors and stepper motors with electric actuators become ever more important. When selecting a motor for an ...

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The global servo and stepper motors market 2019-2023 is expected to post a CAGR of close to 6% during the forecast period, according to the latest market research report by ...
