Selecting the right motor type and motor control techniques is critical for maximizing performance and efficiency in industrial applications.

For example, traditional step motor systems run in open loop control. That means the drive electronics continuously supply current to the motor whether or not the load is demanding torque.

Homing processes use open-loop control. In this system, we are not continuously measuring the position, but the position is determined based on the number of steps that are sent to the motor that is ...

In open-loop control, the synchronous motor (BLDC or BLAC) is driven via a control signal and is assumed to follow the commanded control action. In the closed-loop control system, the circuit is able ...
