Hybrid PLC Mechatronics - Chapter 17 Motion

Abstract

This chapter covers the topic of motion control through the PLC to stepper and servo motor devices. Stepper motors are used traditionally for low torque applications with no feedback. The servo on the other hand can handle higher torque applications and requires a feedback device.
