Our ability to create electronic and motion control solutions in-house is crucial to keeping our machines running smoothly. As a machine builder, it’s essential to have a deep understanding of motion control systems to craft effective manufacturing solutions. CNC machines and other specific numeric control devices operate on a principle called Cartesian Motion, which involves movement in three directions: X, Y, and Z. Each axis is driven by an open loop stepper, closed loop stepper, or servo motor. The motion control board sends pulse and direction signals to the motors. Additionally, various electronics such as sensors, end stops, and decoders are involved in the process to help the control system understand the physical system.
Another favorite of ours is IoT, or connecting things though the internet. Connecting our manufacturing machines so they can be controlled remotely. Connecting our home automation to our smart phone for off premise monitoring. Let's not forget about immersive entertainment experience project that have layers of electronic controls and sensors.
