What is the one variable in the universe of motion control system variables that ties everything together? Some time ago a friend of mine, Phd Mathematician, wrote a software program that optimized all the variables required to construct an electric motor. The obvious ones are simple physical variables like diameter and length of the motor […]

Danaher Motion Introduces MechaWare 3.0
SANTA BARBARA, CALIF — Danaher Motion introduces MechaWare 3.0 — the industry’s only mechatronic toolkit that seamlessly integrates mechanical systems and control software design resulting in faster design cycles, superior motion system performance, and faster time to market.
Networks and Control
Network technology has changed dramatically. Speeds that would have seemed unimaginable ten years ago are off-the-shelf these days. And with the speed a lot of bottlenecks have disappeared. With the possible exception of motion control applications. Networks for motion are still a in category by themselves. Sercos has gone through major evolution to its current […]
