Learn the basic functions of feedback devices and how to select the right device for your servo system. We will compare a variety of feedback devices for performance, features and price, and evaluate the benefits of these technologies in various application scenarios. You’ll also discover the new Kollmorgen SFD-M smart feedback device and learn how it excels at meeting most servo system requirements, including the need for multi-turn absolute functionality.

In this session, you will learn:

  • The basic functions and characteristics of the feedback technologies commonly used in modern servo systems
  • How to choose a servo feedback device that meets your specific requirements
  • How the SFD-M compares to other feedback devices, with application examples that are ideal for this new high-performance, high-value technology
