Advances in motor design have allowed different types of robots to both specialize for industrial functions and converge in precision.

This library makes it easier to use a feedback servo motor (e.g. the Adafruit one). Right now it supports reading from an analog input and adjusting the motor accordingly. The motor will stop when it ...

Abstract: The Hand is a necessary part of the human being. Though the hand is used for everything in our day to day life, its strength and flexibility limits the use in extreme scenarios. The Robotic ...

AKMH's stainless steel construction with BISSC, FDA, NSF and EHEDG certifications eliminates motor bagging during washdowns, saving maintenance time and directly improving overall equipment ...

Paul and David Bradt’s Ardiono Projects offers multiple ways to use Arduino and Raspberry Pi microcontrollers for your model railroading projects. Buy the book here. Code for Button/Blink Test (SN095) ...

Behind all the whooping headlines, NRA’s biggest concrete achievement last week was President Roosevelt’s signing of the automobile code. It was the fifth major industry to be brought under a ...

Rock Springs High School science teacher Deb Jensen, second from left, assisted with a STEM (science, technology, engineering and technology) program at Western Wyoming Community College. University ...

ST’s EVLSERVO1, a turnkey reference platform for servo motor control, enables sensorless or sensored field-oriented control (FOC) with one, two, or three shunts. It drives three-phase brushless motors ...

This paper describes the development and implementation of a control system for a direct current (DC) motor using the Arduino Uno microcontroller, based on the speed and direction control of the motor ...

The recent push to make everything smart or connected has led to some interesting evolutions in manufacturing. Application and infrastructure divided the use of electromechanical and fluid power.

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 ...
