The HETDEX project (Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment) is the first major attempt to find and examine “dark energy” in the universe. Through this project, we are able to record three-dimensional positions of one million galaxies using special spectrographs. In the summer of 2012, the Hobby-Eberly Telescope began scanning the universe with the help of maxon … Continue reading maxon motors are used in the Hobby-Eberly Telescope

maxon motors play a crucial role in the Boeing 787’s air conditioning system
When in flight, the air becomes thin, particularly at altitudes of 11 km above sea level. This is where modern pressure cabins and environmental control systems (ECS) come into play; they create and maintain a comfortable atmosphere in commercial aircraft. When Boeing was designing their 787 Dreamliner, they utilized a special air-conditioning system to improve … Continue reading maxon motors play a crucial role in the Boeing 787’s air conditioning system
Brush Servo Motor vs. Brushless Servo Motor: which is better for my application?
By Warren Osak, CEO of Electromate A common misconception is that a brushless servo motor is always going to be a superior solution to a brush servo motor. In many industrial automation applications, this assumption can be furthest from the truth. A comparison of the benefits and drawbacks of brush and brushless servo motors is … Continue reading Brush Servo Motor vs. Brushless Servo Motor: which is better for my application?

Do you know the difference between these 10 types of servomotors?
Servomotors are generally used as a high performance alternative to the stepper motor. Stepper motors have some inherent ability to control position, as they have built-in output steps. This often allows them to be used as an open-loop position control, without any feedback encoder, as their drive signal specifies the number of steps of movement … Continue reading Do you know the difference between these 10 types of servomotors?
