The motor may approach the commanded position in several ways. If the motor approaches the required position from one direction and stops, the system response is overdamped. If, on the other hand, the ...

Reconfigurable motion control helps today’s machines boost throughput, increase quality, and lower cost. Here we explain the basics of reconfigurable control and how it changes design approaches and ...

Electromechanical actuators are mechanical actuators where the control knob or handle has been replaced by an electric motor. The rotary motion of the motor is converted into linear displacement. The ...

MEMS gyroscopes offer a simple way to measure angular rate of rotation, in packages that easily attach to printed circuit boards, so they are a popular choice to serve as the feedback sensing element ...

For quite some time now, Marlin has been the firmware of choice for any kind of custom 3D printer, with only Klipper offering some serious competition in the open-source world. [Liam Powell] aims to ...
