Hybrid Stepper-motor Controls

March 18, 2015
Sponsored by Schneider Electric Motion USA
Electric motors are replacing fluid-power actuation where applications benefit from tight control of speed and precision positioning. However, even motors sometimes fall short. Here we look at new technology that addresses this problem — and lets engineers use stepper motors to build cost-effective performance machines. Where do servomotors and step motors make sense? What’s hMTechnology? What kinds of motors can use hMTechnology? Download the FAQs of Hybrid Stepper-Motor Controls sponsored by Schneider Electric Motion USA to get the answers to these questions and more.
