    Product Gallery: Motion Control and Actuators

    July 20, 2017
    Linear- and rotary-motion control products can typically transmit data through one or more communications interface, which are designed to allow easy configuration of the product and monitoring of real-time positional and speed data.

    This gallery includes several encoders with connectivity for continuous data monitoring and motion control. It also includes motion control chips for multiple axes, motors with built-in encoders, and some actuators.
