What is a Servo System - Concise Introduction
Servo system (servomechanism), also known as follow-up system, is a feedback control system used to accurately follow or reproduce a certain process. The servo system is an automatic control system that enables the output controlled quantities such as the position, orientation, and state of the object to follow any changes in the input target (or given value). Its main job is to amplify, transform and regulate the power according to the requirements of the control command, so that the torque, speed and position control output by the drive device are very flexible and convenient.

How to Fix Servo Motor Encoder Error of an Auto Machine?
Encoder signal loss: This can be brought on by a malfunctioning encoder, a damaged cable, or a bad cable connection. Replacing damaged cables, inspecting and re-connecting cables, and changing the encoder are some solutions.
binder USA Introduces M12 K- and L-Coded Overmolded Cable Components to Meet UL 2238 Standards for North America
binder USA expanded its 823/824 product series with K- and L-coded overmolded cable components that meet the UL 2238 standard for North America. The transmission of electrical power via compact M12 interfaces has become a fundamental requirement. The new components provide reliable power transmission to field devices, such as sensors, wireless transmitters, and Fieldbus devices. They also offer a compact alternative to 7/8-inch power connections used in industrial automation.
The K- coding indicates 5-pin connectors for AC supply of drives and frequency converters. The L-coding indicates 5-pin connectors for DC miniature drives, decentralized I/O modules, and Fieldbus systems. Gold-plated contacts guarantee reliable current transmission, while fully-overmolded connectors ensure IP68-level interface protection. The M12x1.0 thread is equipped with an anti-vibration lock.
