RC servos are a common component in many robotics projects, but [Giovanni Leal] needed linear motion instead of the rotary actuation that servos normally offer. The 3D Printed Mini Linear Actuator was ...

The miniature GVCM-019-032-02 linear voice coil servo motor is ¾-in. in diameter and features a 0.875-in. stroke. This miniature linear servo motor features a continuous high-force-to-size ratio of ...

Berkshire-based Electro Mechanical Systems (EMS) has samples of Nidec Servo’s DMN range brushed electric motors. “Optimised brush design allows intermittent operation over one million cycles and a ...

Rockwell Automation (Anorad brand) has introduced a new series of miniature motors to its portfolio of high-performance brushless linear servo motor products. The LEU Series is an ironless core, ...

Understanding where losses occur and how to minimize them is key to improving performance across servo systems.

A growing number of manufacturers are saving time and money by testing, diagnosing and even repairing servo motors in-house. We look at the expanded role of encoder test systems and present one ...
