The SCA-100 intelligent control and amplifier package from BEI Sensors and Systems, Kimco Magnetics Div., provides position, velocity, and torque control from the company's line of voice-coil actuators or other devices such as brush dc-type motors. The package is based on a 16-bit microprocessor architecture.

The miniature 5-phase CSK motion subsystem from Oriental Motor USA Corp. consists of a size 17, 5-phase hybrid step motor, a low-backlash gearhead, and a compact, 24V dc board level driver. These motors provide step motor shaft torques ranging from 18 to 26 to 34 oz-inches holding torque. Low shaft vibration and high-accuracy operation is achieved with step motor resolutions of 0.72 degrees per step.
