Overview Technosoft motion control drives are used in a plethora of industries and depending on the application type and characteristics, their power ranges from just a few watts to High Powered (8KW) applications, such as the AGV industry. Here the phenomenon of regenerative braking, although not limited only to the cases of high power applications, is certainly more important and has clear and visible effects. This is the process in which the mechanic energy (usually present in the load in the forms of kinetic or potential energy) is converted to electric energy in the motor and is flowing back toward [...]

Introduction In the world of motion control applications, voltage efficiency helps increasing the overall performance of the motor control allowing higher speeds to be reached. The Micro 4804 family of miniature drives stand out by achieving an impressive 91% minimum voltage efficiency at 100 kHz PWM frequency, making them the perfect choice for compact, high-precision systems that demand both power and reliability. Understanding PWM in Motor Control PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) is the most used method for controlling power delivery in power electronics and motor control systems. PWM works by rapidly switching the drive outputs on and off, varying the [...]
