Welcome to Oriental Motor's "Engineering Notes" Blog:

In high-volume manufacturing, every second matters.  Although traditional SCARA robots have been a staple in assembly and material handling, their limited rotational range can often cause delays that can keep them from maximizing throughput.

In high-precision automation environments like semiconductor manufacturing, even the smallest error can result in costly defects and downtime.   What if you could deliver servo-like precision without the complexity or cost of servo motors?

CVD Series stepper drivers are the best choice for PKP Series high-torque stepper motors due to their unique abilities to reduce different types of motor vibrations and optimize performance.

A network-compatible multi-axis driver can save space and reduce costs by combining multiple stepper motor drive circuits in a single product and minimizing the number of cables necessary for motion control.

In the factories of the future, wireless motion control will offer unprecedented flexibility for mobile machines and space-constrained applications. This comprehensive guide walks engineers through implementing wireless motion control using Oriental Motor's AZ Series Ethernet Type mini Driver, eliminating cables while maintaining precise motion control.

AC induction motors are the workhorses that power many types of conveyors to transport materials.  However, there's a smaller but mightier type of motor that can help enhance the design and performance of conveyors for many industries.

For speed synchronization applications like a dual belt labeling conveyor, multiple motors must run at the same speed.  What is the best type of motor to use and what are the methods to achieve this?  Our application engineer set up a product demonstration to show you how this can be done with one potentiometer.

Interested in industrial robots but not sure where to start?  Learn how Oriental Motor's compact and easy-to-use small industrial robots, robot controllers, and software can help simplify robotic automation.

This article introduces the key innovations of the powerful AZX Series, which is a uniquely different servo motor and driver system designed to be easier to use and more cost-effective than traditional servo motor systems.
