With optimized motion control, you're able
to reduce the consumption of the motors
to the bare minimum needed to keep the
line running. You not only use less power
but also increase motor lifetime, reduce
the need for maintenance, and decrease
downtime."
Rafael Marengo
System Applications Engineer – Industrial Robotics, Analog Devices, Inc.
employ as standard practice autonomous guided
vehicles and autonomous mobile robots, which are
battery-powered vehicles that perform material
handling tasks without a human driver. Without
sophisticated battery management and power
control systems, these devices are notorious energy
consumers, leading to unsustainable operations.
Proper battery management and power control can
ensure these devices are charged effectively and
efficiently.
ADI is helping customers by offering modules that
facilitate the development of motion control, power
management, and battery management systems.
