Allied Motion Technologies, a manufacturer of precision and specialty controlled motion products, announced on May 9 that it plans to merge with ThinGap, a developer and manufacturer of zero cogging slotless motors such as its new motors for small satellites and cubesats. Their innovative design puts all the magnetics, which are the heaviest part of the motor, in the rotor to maximize inertia. […]
For people with amputation who have prosthetic limbs, one of the greatest challenges is controlling the prosthesis so that it moves the same way a natural limb would. Most prosthetic limbs are controlled using electromyography, a way of recording electrical activity from the muscles, but this approach provides only limited control of the prosthesis. […]
The maxon Group, headquartered in Switzerland, has established a new innovation and production center in France, making a EUR 10 million investment into building its mechatronic capabilities there in support of an ambitious growth program. […]
NVE has recently introduced its most sensitive magnetometer sensor to date. The new ALT023 is a version of the popular ALT025 Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) analog magnetometer with ten times the sensitivity. The ALT023 uses NVE’s revolutionary […]
Two new brushless DC motors from maxon of Switzerland feature innovative magnetic aspects that enable them to provide important capabilities for design engineers. A frameless brushless-DC motor with new winding technology and a matching encoder really comes into its own in dynamic applications. A new series of flat motors, shown above, also feature special winding technology along with segmented magnets, designed particularly for design engineers grappling with tight spaces. […]
Novanta, a manufacturer of motion control and robotic components, has acquired Schneider Motion Control USA for $115 million and ATI Industrial Automation for about $172 million. Now, through its growing lineup of products including many […]
Trinamic has introduced a small, low-power servo control module with integrated motion control for stepper motors that features an on-board magnetic encoder. The single-axis controller-driver module is designed for two-phase bipolar stepper motors used in robotics and automation equipment. It optimizes speed and synchronization […]
