💡 What does a zero-backlash coupling do in servo motor systems?
Zero-backlash couplings eliminate play between the motor and the driven component, making them perfect for high-precision motion tasks:
-
Maintains accuracy under load without shift or delay
-
Prevents oscillations in feedback systems
-
Essential for fast acceleration and deceleration cycles
-
Ideal for dynamic motion applications like robotics or PCB routers
