New Scale Technologies Inc.'sminiature M3-L closed-loop linear motion module has a 0.5 micron positionresolution and a total package size of less than 27.5 x 13 x 7.5 mm. All motionand control ...

Stepper motor linear actuators (SMLAs) combine a stepper motor, precision lead screw and nut in one compact envelope, providing a highly configurable, customizable and robust system for linear motion.

In industrial applications requiring high levels of precision, the position encoder impacts the velocity control and positioning of linear motors and results in quiet motor operation with less heat ...

To run a stepper motor smoothly, it's necessary to apply linear acceleration. However, conventional algorithms to generate linear acceleration require complicated mathematics, which makes it difficult ...

The ABCs of PID control. Considerations for interfacing elements in the electrical circuit to accomplish those parts of the PID function for position control. Firmware code implementation.

Victor, N.Y. — Developed to simplify computer control of its piezoelectric SQUIGGLE motors and closed-loop linear nanopositioning stages, the SQ-2300 series benchtop motor controller from New Scale ...

Once considered expensive and exotic, linear motors are at last becoming valuable workhorses in a variety of OEM applications. Besides delivering nanometer precision in the semiconductor and machine ...

Debuting as the newest member of the CONEX integrated stage and controller family, the CONEX-AGP is preconfigured with an Agilis AG-LS25-27P linear stage that integrates a direct-read linear encoder.

This study focuses on the direct-drive ultrasonic resonant motors called PILine ® motors. Their direct-drive design enables ultra-low response times and highly precise positioning without any backlash ...

Not missing a beat: Here we take a look at why open-loop steppers lose steps, as well as some solutions to the problem. As in the below) half-stepping produces eight steps per electrical rotation — ...
