- DC drive fundamentals
This paper examines some of the basic characteristics obtainable from DC motors and their associated solid-state controls. - Understanding programmable automation controllers (PACs) in industrial automation
This paper provides an understanding of how PACs provide in a single compact controller the advanced control features, network connectivity, device interoperability, and enterprise data integration capabilities found in PLC- or PC-based automation controllers. - The world of drives
This white paper explores the world of drives used in motion control applicationsincluding inverter, vector, servo and now, linear drivesand explains where each is best used. - Advances in stepper motors: The disc magnet technology
This paper shows the salient differences between a traditional brushless DC and a stepper motor, as well as the different technologies used in stepper motors. - Closed loop control of stepper motors without position sensor
This paper presents a patent-pending method to operate stepper motors in closed loop position without position sensors, boosting stepper-motor performance into the range of servomotor performance while maintaining the inherent simplicity of the conventional stepper motor drive system.
