Delta AC Servo Systems, which are widely used in industrial automation for precise control of position, speed, and torque in motion control applications.
Delta Electronics is a global leader in automation, and their AC servo systems are popular due to performance, reliability, and affordability.
⚙️ What is an AC Servo System?
An AC servo system typically consists of:
Servo Motor – Converts electrical energy into mechanical motion
Servo Drive (Amplifier) – Controls motor operation by processing feedback and command signals
Encoder/Feedback Device – Provides real-time position/speed feedback to the drive
Delta’s AC servo systems are used in:
CNC machines
Robotics
Conveyors
Packaging machines
Pick-and-place arms
Printing, textile, and labeling systems
