Abstract :
Servos improve machine performance and productivity, as well as improving product consistency, lowering the reject rate, and improving the part\´s quality. All of these individually help save on cost-but servos bring all these benefits together and add to the improvement of the bottom line. What makes a servo "different"? As reviewed in this paper, there are several design characteristics and manufacturing techniques that make a servo "different" than other motor technologies. These lead to the advantages of servos. The performance of servos, how they compare to other technologies, the advantages, the application benefits and improvements are also covered
