For feedback and closed-loop control, controllers are used with AC servomotors, which are AC motors with encoders built in. These motors may be precisely controlled by positioning them in the exact location needed for the application.
Servomotors frequently have superior bearings or designs with tighter tolerances, and some smaller designs also use higher voltages to produce more torque. Robotics, automation, CNC equipment, and other fields needing adaptability and high levels of precision frequently employ AC servomotors.
The integration of an encoder and controller distinguishes AC servomotors from all other AC motors as their primary distinction. Any form of AC motor can serve as the motor itself. Based on their architecture, synchronous and induction AC motors fall into two categories.
Additionally, gearing can be used with AC motors to boost torque, lower speed, and simplify motor design.
The Global AC Servo Motors Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
An AC servo motor (resolution: 17 bit) outfitted with Zignear, the position detecting technology that may be used in industrial robots and replace encoders, was developed jointly by Nidec and its subsidiary Nidec Sankyo.
The motor is designed to be used in automated guided vehicles and industrial robots. An encoder, a sensor that primarily detects the rotation of brushless DC motors, is crucial for positioning a motor precisely and maintaining its spin over time.
The General Purpose AC Servo MELSERVO J5 series and the iQ-R Series Motion Control Unit are two new servo system series that Mitsubishi Electric Corporation has introduced. These will assist the CC-Link IE TSN2 industrial open network’s second generation.
These new items will help improve machine efficiency and hasten the development of smart factory solutions because they offer market-leading performance and CC-Link IE TSN compatibility.
The Renesas RZ/T2M motor control microprocessor units have been introduced by Renesas Electronics Corporation, a well-known supplier of cutting-edge semiconductor solutions (MPUs). The devices are intended for applications like industrial robotics and AC servo drives.
On a single chip, the Renesas RZ/T2M combines the newest industrial Ethernet technology with quick and accurate real-time motor control capabilities, supporting functional safety operation.
Yaskawa Electric Corporation is happy to announce the introduction of the renowned “-7 Series’ replacement, the AC servo drives “-X Series.” By enhancing the capacity to follow instructions and assuring stable operation, the speed response frequency, a key assessment metric for servo drives, has reached 3.5 kHz, the highest level in the world, leading to an increase in productivity.
The servomotor’s top speed of 7000 revolutions per minute increases the device’s driving speed, reduces tact time, and boosts productivity. With an encoder that ranges in resolution from the industry’s standard 24 bit (16 million pulses/rotation) to the greatest level of 26 bit (67 million pulses/rotation), it achieves smoother movement and increases stop precision.
