What is Servoing?
A servo is a device, electrical,
mechanical or electro-mechanical,
that upon receipt of a stimulus or
input, will employ feedback for velocity
and/or position control, creating a
closed loop.
Dynamic Solutions
  Servos

provide dynamic
solutions
  Precise control of the
load
  High accelerations
  High decelerations
  Superior motion profiles

  Semiconductor
  Textile
  Medical
  Aerospace & Defense
  Automated Guided Vehicles
Servo Actuator vs. Hydraulic
Servo Actuators

 
 
 
 
 

 

Easy replacement for
many hydraulics
Strokes up to 1500mm
No hydraulic lines
No Hydraulic leaks
Can position to an
accurate point in mid
stroke
No danger of high
pressure line breaks
