Servos have played a key role in shaping the landscape of motion control systems, enabling new levels of accuracy, precision and dynamism. With cycle times measured in microseconds and the ability to ...

In the last few years, the use of electric servo technology has expanded rapidly into applications that have traditionally been deprived of the benefits of high-performance motion control.

With a capital spending recovery on the horizon, the outlook for makers of servo drives is turning up, according to a study released today by ARC Advisory Group (www.arcweb.com), Dedham, Mass.
