Festo introduces the CMSX, the first in a new generation of process industry closed loop position controllers for quarter turn actuators. The new CMSX delivers high functionality at a price ...

When you think about highly-precise actuators, stepper motors probably aren’t the first device that comes to mind. However, as [Diffraction Limited]’s sub-micron capable micro-manipulator shows, they ...

With a Plug & Drive PD2-N integrated closed loop stepping motor, Nanotec expanded its offering of integrated stepper motors with closed loop sine commutation. Nanotec is expanding NEMA 17 applications ...

How closed-loop control systems provide real-time motion and position feedback in motion control applications. What to consider when choosing motion control sensors like industrial 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 ...

A special closed-loop stepping-motor system eliminates difficulties around resonances and allows less-conservative motor sizing. • Clever management of motor current in a closed-loop stepper system ...

Today on Hackaday Dictionary, we’re going to talk about the two basic types of control systems: open-loop and closed-loop. We’ll describe the differences between them and explore the various ...
