Flexible Solutions for Servo Drives

Learn more about innovative and rugged TE technologies for your servo-drive solutions that can help you continue to meet your customers' growing requirements.

Servo technology can boost productivity and cost efficiency in automated production.  Further advancements can be achieved through even faster and more precise feedback and control processes — made possible through the interaction of servo motors and servo drives. Available in standard and decentralized designs, servo drives receive a command signal from a control system, amplify the signal, and transmit electric current to a servo motor to produce motion.

There is a growing demand for decentralized architectures that place high IP-rated servo drives closer to the servo motor, which helps reduce component cost, panel size, and floor space and simplifies installation. This increases the need for modular machine solutions and compact and rugged connectors that allow miniaturization.
