Capabilities in rapid prototyping, reverse engineering and heat treating enhance end-to-end support for manufacturers
A keyless coupling unit in the servo motor, an electric cylinder or preloaded ball screws can help manage the lost motion
Preloaded ball screws, direct feedback mechanisms or control-based or drive-based lost motion compensation can manage backlash
Controlling the motion path for lasers across multiple axes has come with certain limitations relating to performance, speed, practicalities and, not least, higher complexity and costs. The development of new modular controllers with the flexibility to link a laser to multi-axis positioning is making it easier for system integrators to design and build advanced systems for a new age of laser applications.
