Servo driver, also known as "servo controller" and "servo amplifier", is a controller used to control servo motors. Its function is similar to that of a frequency converter on ordinary AC motors. It is part of the servo system and is mainly used in high-precision positioning systems. Generally, it controls the servo motor through three methods: position, speed and torque to achieve high-precision positioning of the transmission system. It is currently a high-end product in transmission technology.
Based on the comprehensive indicators, such as servo drive brand awareness, quality level, after-sales service, innovation ability, the following list data has been released. This list is only for users to find good servo drive brands for reference.
