Introduction
Basic Motion Control
A motion control system provides programmable control of speed, torque and positioning of
motors. Controlling motion includes the ability to accelerate and decelerate, control the
velocity and achieve accurate positioning of the motor shaft.
An EMERSON Motion Control 230V FX drive system consists of a FX Positioning Drive,
which includes the microprocessor controlled amplifier, a DX (230V) Series Brushless Servo
Motor of correct torque rating, and motor cabling as shown below.
