What is servo controllers?

Servo controllers are electronic devices that precisely control the position, velocity, and/or torque of servo motors. They typically receive control signals (e.g., PWM, analog voltage, or serial data) and use feedback mechanisms to ensure the servo motor accurately follows the desired command. Servo controllers are widely used in robotics, automation, CNC machines, and radio-controlled vehicles to provide precise and controlled motion.

What other technologies are related to servo controllers?

servo controllers Competitor Technologies

AC drives (Variable Frequency Drives) are a competing technology used to control the speed and torque of AC motors, often used in similar applications as servo controllers, but generally for less precise control.
