  2. Servomechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomechanism

    Following a specified motion trajectory is called servoing, [4] where "servo" is used as a verb. The servo prefix originates from the Latin word servus meaning slave. [1] The term correctly applies only to systems where the feedback or error-correction signals help control mechanical position, speed, attitude or any other measurable variables. [5]

  3. Servomotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomotor

    A servomotor (or servo motor or simply servo) [1] is a rotary or linear actuator that allows for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity, and acceleration in a mechanical system. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It constitutes part of a servomechanism , and consists of a suitable motor coupled to a sensor for position feedback and a controller ...

  4. Self-steering gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-steering_gear

    The most widespread form of self-steering, the servo pendulum, was introduced to cope with the power required to operate a larger rudder and was a successor to the servo trim tab principle (introduced by Herbert "Blondie" Hasler). Common to all servo pendulum rudder (oar, blade) systems is the fact, that the speed of the boat through the water ...

  5. Servo control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_control

    Servo and receiver connections A diagram showing typical PWM timing for a servomotor. Servo control is a method of controlling many types of RC/hobbyist servos by sending the servo a PWM (pulse-width modulation) signal, a series of repeating pulses of variable width where either the width of the pulse (most common modern hobby servos) or the duty cycle of a pulse train (less common today ...

  6. Hopsan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HOPSAN

    Hopsan is a free simulation environment for fluid and mechatronic systems, developed at Linköping University.Although originally developed for simulation of fluid power systems, it has also been adopted for other domains such as electric power, flight dynamics, and vehicle dynamics.

  7. EAGLE (program) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_(program)

    EAGLE contains a schematic editor, for designing circuit diagrams. Schematics are stored in files with .SCH extension, parts are defined in device libraries with .LBR extension. Parts can be placed on many sheets and connected together through ports. The PCB layout editor stores board files with the extension .BRD.

  8. Synchro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchro

    The motor is geared to the CT rotor, and when the transmitter's rotor moves, the servo motor turns the CT's rotor and the mechanical load to match the new position. CTs have high-impedance stators and draw much less current than ordinary synchro receivers when not correctly positioned.

  9. Servo drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_drive

    OEM servo drive from INGENIA installed on CNC router machine controlling a Faulhaber motor. Servo systems can be used in CNC machining, factory automation, and robotics, among other uses. Their main advantage over traditional DC or AC motors is the addition of motor feedback. This feedback can be used to detect unwanted motion, or to ensure the ...
