Motion control experts Christopher Mock and Dr. Simon Kapelke shed light on the development process of PI's active damping and vibration compensation solutions. “Developing new concepts, from ...

Chevron and MARIN worked together on a novel approach to characterize the actual damping for an FSPO in real world conditions. Results show that using damping from model tests means that roll decay in ...

This Video shows the effectiveness of a novel control approach for motion tracking and damping assignment in compliantly actuated robotic systems on an anthr... Video: Motion Tracking and Damping ...

When in doubt, make it stout. That was the rule of thumb for designing strong and durable machine tools in the past. Over the years, however, this mindset has changed as technical advances have ...

Researchers working at the intersection of waste recycling and metallurgy are building a case that dead leaves, once ...

Here's how manufacturers and distribution centers can build automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) with carefully orchestrated motion control.

Controlling hydraulic motion with precision involves understanding the fundamental difference between servo motors and hydraulic actuators. Electric motors generally respond linearly to control inputs ...

For effective vibration isolation, it is desirable to increase the frequency ratio r to a value much larger than sqrt(2) by either reducing the stiffness of the system or increasing its mass. This is ...
