SureServo - AC Servo Systems
The AutomationDirect SureServo family of brushless servo systems is fully digital and offers a rich set of features to cover a broad range of motion control applications. There are eight standard servo motors that can be operated in combination with one of three standard servo drives. The servo drives can be configured for a range of command sources including analog torque, analog velocity, "step & direction" or "up & down" pulse position, quadrature encoder follower, and built-in motion controller with preset position, velocity, or torque. Presets can be selected with switch inputs or modified with the MODBUS serial interface. Configuration and diagnostics of the servo drives can be accomplished with the integrated keypad/display or the easy-to-use PC-based FREE SureServo Pro software.

What is a Motion Control System? Motion control is typically considered to be the industrial automation field of controlling the position and/ or velocity of some type of actuator, usually an electric motor. Motion control is a very important component of robotics applications, but it is also used extensively in many other industrial applications where the motions are less complex. Non-robotic applications are often referred to as General Motion Control (GMC). For example, motion control systems are used widely in the packaging, printing, manufacturing and assembly industries, as well as many others. Common motion control product manufacturing applications include conveyor system controls, food processing, or other material handling applications. Typical motion control system architectures include:

Why Use A Servo System? (vs. a lower cost Stepper System) The SureServo AC servo systems provide the highest possible level of performance for precise control of position, velocity, and torque. As compared to lower cost stepping systems, the AC servo products provide:
