Solve High Resolution and Low Speed Motion Control Dilemmas
Hillerod, Denmark, November 2011
PCBMotor Aps, a Danish piezomotor technology company, recently released a new white paper titled How to Solve High Resolution Low Speed Motion Control Dilemmas.
The paper reveals the most common pains faced by application engineers and designers and clearly and concisely highlights how their innovative PCB motor technology increases profits by:
- Improving design and performance
- Lowering costs and automating production
- Reducing bill of materials
- Speeding up time-to-market
The white paper is available for download and discusses:
- The differences between PCBMotors and stepper motors
- Why engineers should consider PCBMotors when designing a motor application strategy
- How PCBMotors deliver improved performance, slimmer designs and increase ROI
- Motor performance experiment results ─ lifetime, temperature, torque-speed-power
- Industry applications and real world cases
Customer-driven development kit
In response to a survey earlier in 2011, the company launched a high resolution twin motor kit to match their market’s primary requirements. The kit assists project teams with rapid prototyping of compact, precision positioning applications.
The High Resolution Twin Motor kit demonstrates:
- Bi-directional multiplexing of multiple rotary motors on one PCB
- Single driver circuit that’s cheaper to produce, assemble and saves space
- Ultra-high resolution (micropulsing) that maintains holding torque without power
The twin motor kit can be seen in action on Youtube and those interested can also read more about the motor, position sensor, controller board, and pricing details online.
