Description
of Instrument
The Rotary Servo Base Unit
is a geared servo-mechanism system. This DC motor drives the smaller pinion
gear through an internal gear box. The pinion gear is fixed to a larger
middle gear that rotates on the load shaft. The position of the load shaft
can be measured using a high-resolution optical encoder or a potentiometer.
The encoder is also used to estimate the speed of the motor.
