When implementing cooling solutions for electronic equipment, system designers are confronted with a complex set of variables. The cooling requirements are typically dynamic, and ambient temperatures ...

The scanning vibration mirror system drives the scanning mirror fixed to it through the oscillation of the motor shaft, so as to control the reflected light to form a dynamic variable light path. The ...

All motion control systems aim to maneuver loads down paths with a predefined motion. If this intended motion is achieved by comparing actual load motion to desired motion and then making corrections, ...

Aircraft flutter is a kind of self-excited vibration, meaning an aircraft flying on the ground will start to flutter or vibrate when it is disturbed. But due to the existence of the damping, this ...

Enabling the rapid development of custom closed-loop micro actuator modules, the M3 (Micro-Mechatronic Module) design platform builds on the miniature SQUIGGLE motor and TRACKER position sensor ...

Industrial control systems can be categorized in two types: open-loop and closed-loop systems. The open-loop control system is a continuous control system that provides no feedback from its output.

In 2012, Automation World published an article looking at the decision factors faced when choosing electric or pneumatic actuators. More than a decade later, manufacturing engineers and OEMs still ...

Step motors are popular first and foremost because they are easy to use. They do not require an encoder to maintain their position, and unlike DC brush or brushless DC motors when used for positioning ...

In Figures 16 and 21, the power stage Gcv(s) with closed current loop is determined by the selection of power stage components, which are mainly decided by the DC ...
