Pneumatic Step Motor is First Fully MRI-compatible Motor
Engineers at Johns Hopkins University are investigating the use of a robot (MrBot) that can operate within the closed bore of magnetic-resonance imaging (MRI) equipment to help physicians perform remote biopsies of tumors under MRI guidance. Researchers involved in the project say that MRI is ideal for this type of application because it is the […]
Servo Motors by B&R
The dynamics of a system can generally be characterized based on two values: the available motor torque and the moment of inertia for the power transmission system. The later of the two consists of the moment of inertia of both the motor and the load and is an important measurement of the system’s dynamics. Lower […]
