Servo motors, like any mechanical equipment, require periodic checks and servicing to ensure they function correctly. Regularly scheduled maintenance not only prolongs the life of the servo motor but also enhances its efficiency and reliability. This involves cleaning the motor

It’s no secret that regular servo motor maintenance will significantly extend the life of your motors, reduce downtime, and improve overall productivity. And for manufacturers with the ability to perform (at least basic) repairs, this saves both time and money.  However,

Servicing your servo motor is essential to ensuring its optimal performance and prolonging its lifespan. However, care should be taken during disassembly, servicing, and reassembly to avoid misalignment of the feedback device. Encoders, resolvers, and Hall effect sensors provide feedback on

Diagnosing servo motor issues can be challenging, especially when determining whether the issue lies within the electrical system or the mechanical components. Malfunctions lead to production downtime and costly repairs if not diagnosed accurately and promptly.  Therefore, understanding the distinction between

It happens to all of us.  We take our automobile in for a repair and that rattle or engine problem magically disappears. We may not look forward to spending our hard earned money on the repair, but the assurance of

Like any mechanical or electrical device, servo motors can encounter problems from time to time. Regular maintenance of your servo motors will help to avoid many issues. This includes cleaning, lubrication, and routine inspections to catch potential issues before they

When considering which type of servo motor to use, the choice often boils down to a choice between brushed servo motors or brushless servo motors. So, how do you know which is right for you? The answer is of course:

From CNC machines to robotics, servo motors are helping to drive the manufacturing industry. But their applications extend far beyond traditional manufacturing and motion control. Known for their precision and ability to maintain position, these devices can be found in

Servo motor issues can be traced to any number of areas such as dirt, grease, cracked housings, excessive vibration, extreme temperatures, and so on. However, the problem is often related to the servo motor encoder. More specifically, problems with the

Servo motor repair can be a lengthy and costly process. The longer the servo motor is out of service, the greater the impact on production – and ultimately the bottom line. If you suspect problems with a servo motor, follow
