Servo motors are exceptionally helpful for use in an assembly line. Servos in robotics can ensure that machines are particular in handling, picking up, and placing products on an assembly line, allowing for automation in this process.
Because of the precision and power that servo motors can grant, they are very useful in robots. They are often small, transportable, easily programmable, and accurate. So, their applications in robotic arms and other tools is a specific but perfect fit. Robotic applications may include robotic welding and robotic vehicles.
Other applications include material handling, labeling machines, semiconductor manufacturing, and flying shears.
A servo motor is a precision motor system that combines a motor, feedback device (encoder), and control electronics to provide accurate position, velocity, and acceleration control. Servo motors work using closed-loop control where the controller continuously compares the commanded position to actual position feedback from the encoder, making real-time adjustments to maintain precise control. The system operates by receiving command signals, comparing them to encoder feedback, calculating error correction, and adjusting motor power accordingly. This closed-loop operation enables exceptional accuracy, dynamic response, and the ability to maintain position under varying load conditions. TelcoMotion’s servo motors provide rapid response and precise control for demanding applications requiring high performance and reliability.
AC servo motors use alternating current power supply and depend on frequency and voltage variations to produce power and control speed. They excel at handling high power surges common in industrial machines, offer excellent speed regulation across wide ranges, and typically provide higher power output capabilities (TelcoMotion offers up to 3000 watts). DC servo motors use direct current power supplies or batteries, making them ideal for globally portable systems and simplifying agency certifications. DC servos typically use brushless DC (BLDC) motors combined with drivers and high-precision encoders, offering excellent precision in smaller packages. AC servos are preferred for high-power industrial applications, while DC servos excel in compact, portable, or battery-powered systems requiring precise control.
Servo motors offer several key advantages including exceptional positioning accuracy (typically ±0.01° or better), high dynamic response for rapid acceleration and deceleration, excellent speed regulation across wide operating ranges, high torque-to-inertia ratio for responsive performance, precise velocity control for smooth operation, ability to maintain position under load without drift, excellent repeatability for consistent performance, and adaptability to changing load conditions through closed-loop control. Unlike stepper motors, servos don’t lose steps under overload conditions. Compared to standard AC/DC motors, servos provide far superior precision and control. TelcoMotion’s servo motors combine these advantages with robust construction and reliable performance for demanding applications.
Servo motors excel in applications requiring precise control including industrial automation (assembly lines, pick-and-place systems), robotics (joint control, end-effector positioning), CNC machinery (tool positioning, workpiece manipulation), food packaging equipment (filling, sealing, labeling), semiconductor manufacturing (wafer handling, die bonding), printing and converting machinery (registration control), medical equipment (surgical robots, diagnostic positioning), aerospace applications (flight control surfaces), automotive manufacturing (welding robots, painting systems), and specialized motor applications requiring custom performance characteristics. TelcoMotion’s servo motors are particularly effective in heavy-duty construction applications where high precision, rapid response, and compact size are essential for reliable operation.

Selecting the optimal servo motor requires evaluating torque requirements (continuous, peak, and holding torque), speed requirements (maximum RPM and acceleration needs), positioning accuracy and repeatability requirements, duty cycle and operational environment, inertial load characteristics and coupling methods, control system requirements (analog, digital, network), feedback resolution needed for precision, environmental conditions (temperature, contamination, vibration), space constraints and mounting requirements, and power supply availability (AC vs. DC). TelcoMotion’s engineering team can assist with load calculations, system sizing, and component selection to ensure the servo motor system meets performance requirements while optimizing cost and reliability for your specific application.
Servo motors typically achieve positioning accuracy of ±0.01° to ±0.001° depending on encoder resolution and system design, repeatability within ±0.005°, velocity regulation of ±0.01% of commanded speed, and settling times under 50 milliseconds for step changes. Speed ranges commonly span 1:10,000 or higher ratios from minimum to maximum speed. TelcoMotion’s servo motors feature high-resolution encoders (up to 2^20 counts per revolution), rapid response characteristics, excellent linearity across operating ranges, and robust performance under varying load conditions. Performance specifications can be customized based on application requirements, with options for enhanced accuracy, extended speed ranges, or specialized environmental capabilities.
Servo motors support various control methods including analog control (±10V velocity or torque commands), digital pulse/direction control for positioning, fieldbus communication (Ethernet, CANopen, DeviceNet), and integrated motion controllers with programming capabilities. Control modes include position control (for precise positioning), velocity control (for constant speed applications), and torque control (for force-limited applications). Advanced features may include electronic gearing, cam profiling, coordinated multi-axis motion, and safety-rated functions. TelcoMotion can provide servo systems with appropriate control interfaces and can assist with system integration, programming, and commissioning to ensure optimal performance and ease of use.
Servo motors require periodic maintenance including bearing lubrication (every 5,000-20,000 hours depending on application), encoder cleaning and calibration verification, connection inspection and tightening, amplifier cooling system maintenance, and monitoring for wear or performance degradation. Brushless servo motors eliminate brush replacement requirements, reducing maintenance compared to brushed alternatives.
