Precision Fluid Handling: It’s All In The Pump
Pumps that move liquid precisely are at the heart of a broad array of patient treatment devices and laboratory automation. The first part of our Precision Fluid Handling series will outline the keys to machine design success. You’ll get an understanding of what type of fluid pumps will work best in your motion control application, and what type of motion control techniques will give you the fluid pumping accuracy that you need.
New Motor Control IC Integrates Outer Loop And Velocity Loop Functions
The Juno MC71113, MC73113, and MC78113 are newly released ICs that integrate a high-speed outer loop control function with a velocity control function for 3-phase Brushless DC and DC Brush motors. Ideal for controlling pressure, temperature, liquid level, magnetic bearings, chemical reaction rate, and other 'outer loop' quantities for medical, industrial, and military applications, these devices can operate via microprocessor control or by direct analog or digital signal command.
PMD Products Essential In Covid-19 Battle
The coronavirus outbreak has created an increasing number of challenges to individuals, families, communities, and companies. The rapid spread of COVID-19 has put many of the products built by PMD's customers on the front line of the response. See what solutions our customers are building to identify, treat, and prevent the spread of this devastating virus.
Step Motor Noise and How to Fix It
Step motors are a popular motion control choice in positioning applications for two main reasons - their ease of use and their low cost. But step motors have a well-known liability which is that they are noisy and tend to vibrate when moving. This deep dive, which is part of our Common Motion Control Problems and How to Solve Them series, shows you control techniques that you can use to dramatically reduce, and in some cases eliminate, step motor noise & vibration.
