Which driver is also known as servomotor amplifier?
Note that servo drives are also sometimes called amplifiers because they take the control signal from the controller and amplify it to deliver a specific amount of voltage and current to the motor. Servo Systems consist of four main components; a motor, a drive, a controller and a feedback device.
What drives a servo motor?
A device that is a structural unit of a servo system and is used with a servomotor. The servo drive controls the servomotor according to instructions from a PLC or other controller and performs feedback control with signals from an encoder or other component.
Is a servo drive an amplifier?
A servo drive is an electronic amplifier used to power electric servomechanisms.
What does a servo amplifier do?
Servo amplifiers, or servo amps for short, are drives that are used to power electronic servomechanisms, such as servo motors. A servo amp transfers signals from the command module of the robot, and translates them for the servo motor, so the motor knows how much it should move at any given time.
