A Look at Servo Technology for Power Transmission Systems
This article looks at the latest news on servo motors, drives and motors. How do we differentiate between the definitions? What can design engineers find between a stepper and a servo motor? Also, a quick update this summer on the benefits of closed-loop motor control.
QUICK REACTING AND READILY AVAILABLE TORQUE LIMITERS
Proper torque overload protection is often omitted from machine design over concerns about size, inertia, and performance – not to mention long lead times. The SLE addresses all of this with a compact low inertia design that runs backlash free and disengages within milliseconds of an overload. It’s also readily available.
Understanding the Binding Ratio
Since PBC Linear introduced the 2:1 Ratio principle to the marketplace, it has been quickly adapted by most self-lubricating, linear plain bearing manufacturers as one of the guiding principles regarding their use. Within our white paper, we explain the importance of the 2:1 ratio as well as its practical complications, limitations and troubleshooting.
