Applications of Servo Motors
Controlling a machine's position and movement is essential to many systems. As such, servo motors, which apply the concept of servomechanism, are used. Controlling an aircraft’s tail using your typical DC motor, as an example, would be almost impossible to control and position accurately. These types of actions and commands, which require precise movement, need the precision of servo motors to succeed. Today, we'll be exploring the different uses hat servo motors have in modern robotics. Servo Motors in Robotics Robotics is a field of technology that heavily relies on servomotors. To demonstrate this, imagine a simple robot that picks and places items. It's a simple pick-and-place concept that's used widely in applications such as manufacturing and medicine. To perform this simple task, however, precise movement is required. And that's what makes servo motors so useful - their precision is a vital component in the actuation of joints. This allows a...
