Parker Hannifin: Why Right Sizing Matters




December 4, 2024 Servo brushless amplifiers are critical components in motion control systems, providing precise regulation of brushless motors for torque, velocity, and position. The two most common types of brushless amplifiers, trapezoidal and sinusoidal, differ significantly in their operation and performance characteristics. This paper provides an in-depth comparison of these amplifier types, outlines their…

It’s usually quite difficult to tell safety-rated components and standard components apart just by their physical appearance. Although they perform similar functions, there are important factors that distinguish them from one another, and these differences are the reason why only safety-rated components are a viable option for use in safety systems.
December 21, 2023 Motor starting methods and their strengths and weaknesses In industrial manufacturing, motors play a very important role in driving processes, handling or transforming materials from raw materials to finished products or services. It is equally as important for use in commercial applications, such as household appliances and industrial machinery in buildings and…

Weidmüller’s scalable engineering software, u-control 2000, adapts individually to your requirements. And, the u-control is powerful, compact and fully compatible with Weidmüller’s I/O system u-remote. This article looks at what makes u-control the heart of your automation.
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are one of the main components of any automated system. A typical control system has inputs, outputs, controllers (i.e., PLCs), and some type of human interaction with the system, a human machine interface (HMI), for example.
March 16, 2026 By David Doria, Director of Engineering, Automated Driving, Magna Electronics, March 16, 2026 For years, progress in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) were driven by improving individual sensors. Higher resolution cameras. Longer-range radars. More precise lidars. Each step delivered incremental gains. But optimizing sensors in isolation only goes so far. As ADAS Read More…
