Mentor Sessions for Motion 101

Kollmorgen’s Motion 101 course immerses learners in the world of servo motors, drives, feedback devices and more. Now, by popular demand, we’re offering Mentor Sessions for Motion 101. These courses are globally accessible, and each session can stand alone or be taken as part of the complete Motion 101 course. Register today and get ready to learn all about the advanced technologies and exciting possibilities of servo motion. Each session will run approximately two hours.

These two sessions cover the foundations of motion control. Together, we’ll explore:

The Foundations of Electric Motion

  • Examine motor construction to differentiate various motor types
  • Assess open and closed loop motion control functions
  • Analyze key motor characteristics as they apply to various axes

The Foundations of Motor Performance

  • Review feedback device construction and utilization
  • Evaluate the influence of inertia in controlling motion
  • Ensure performance goals by examining various feedback resolution
