A flat DC motor has ultra-flat dimensions, zero cogging torque, and a coreless motor design. It has an extremely low current consumption, low starting voltage, and a low rotor inertia for extremely ...

Why are there so many different angle encoders on the market? Why do they use different scanning and measuring methods? And which one should a designer choose? To answer those questions, engineers at ...

Alignment of optical encoder commutation signals to a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor could be thought of as being comparable to timing the distributor on a car engine. The distributor tells the spark plugs ...

Encoder tracking is a technique that monitors a reference motor with an encoder and controls a secondary motor. Encoder tracking is a technique that monitors a reference motor with an encoder and ...

In robotics, movements must be precise and well-controlled. As robots are asked to do more as industry becomes more familiar with the technology, there will be an increasing need for high accuracy ...
