We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rotate ...

It isn’t hard to imagine a scenario where you are stuck at home all day with nothing to do and certain items are in short supply. Sure, bathroom tissue gets all the press, but try buying some flour or ...

CUI’s Motion Group announced a new line of stepper motors paired with their AMT11 incremental encoder series. The NEMA‑AMT112S stepper servo motor family is available in compact NEMA 8, 11, 14, 17, ...

Makers, developers and Arduino enthusiasts searching for silent stepper drivers with high resolution encoders which are also Arduino compatible. May be interested in the new range of uStepper S line ...

Absolute Encoder Stepper Motor Drives are advanced motion control devices that integrate an absolute encoder with a stepper motor. These drives are designed to provide precise control over the motor's ...

Encoders are fantastically useful devices for human-machine interfacing. The issue for the makers, teachers, students, and engineers trying to use them is that many have less-than-ideal output signals ...

Retrofitting legacy computer numerical control (CNC) equipment presents both a challenge and an opportunity. Older machines are often still mechanically sound but rely on proprietary or unsupported ...

Stepper motor linear actuators (SMLAs) combine a stepper motor, precision lead screw and nut in one compact envelope, providing a highly configurable, customizable and robust system for linear motion.
