Dual Loop Motion Control with Only One Encoder

Dual loop control is often used to improve the performance of a motion control system. Although this appears more complex at first look, the overall system cost and complexity needed to reach the desired level of precision may often be significantly reduced. In the example system, mechanical stiffness was improved by a factor of approximately 100 by the use of a secondary feedback device. In the case of a single loop lead screw system, the feedback is usually located on the back of the motor.

NES split-ring bearings offer greater thrust capacity

NES split-ring bearings offer greater thrust capacity

The NES split-ring bearing is a single-row, angular contact bearing which supports axial loads in both directions, thereby reducing overall size and weight compared to traditional duplex sets. Pair an NES split-ring and standard angular contact ball bearing for double the load capacity in the primary load direction. Contact NES to learn more.
