For savvy machine builders, distributed motion control is fast becoming the architecture of choice because it uses fewer system components, improves motion accuracy and throughput, and improves ...

When evaluating a motion control system, an integrated approach with hardware and software can be a consideration. More complexity can add to potential points of failure and increased integration ...

Motion and motor controllers are such an integral part of machines and automation systems, they often get taken for granted. But new manufacturing and machine-building demands for more modular system ...

Feedforward control represents an essential strategy in modern motion systems, where anticipated disturbances and system dynamics are counteracted by pre-calculated control inputs. This proactive ...

This article discusses three of the trends that are driving the evolution of existing embedded motion control products and acting as a catalyst for new ones Embedded motion control systems use ...

Motion control has become a fundamental part of industrial, off-road equipment and other automation applications from simple to mechatronic, and programming motion control has been simplified with the ...
