Automation1 Control Systems Demonstrate Significantly Improved PID Loop Bandwidth and Motion Control Performance
Building on over 50 years of motion control expertise, the Automation1 motion control platform contains some of the highest performing drive hardware available on the market today. To demonstrate how Automation1 outperforms Aerotech’s previous generation of drive hardware products, the Automation1-XR3 was compared to the A3200 Npaq.
Automation1 Linear Servo Drive Products Provide Industry-Leading In-Position Stability
Aerotech’s Automation1 linear amplifier products provide industry-leading in-position stability performance. The Automation1 XR3 multi-axis drive rack can be configured with up to six individual XSL3 amplifiers. The Automation1 XL2e enhanced, compact linear servo drive is a single-axis version that uses similar technology.
Automation1 Motion Control Platform Improves Laser Scan System Tracking Performance
Precision laser scanning systems are characterized by their ability to perform challenging contoured motion while maintaining the desired path position. One might refer to this as the “minimal tracking error” or “minimal following error.” Many factors are involved in delivering high-throughput, highly-accurate laser scanning systems.
Part-Speed Position Synchronized Output
Part-Speed Position Synchronized Output (PSO) is an effective tracking mode for Aerotech’s PSO advanced controller feature.

Synchronizing Position Synchronized Output (PSO) with Mode Locked Lasers
Many lasers are limited to firing pulses based on an internal clock source and cannot be asynchronously triggered from an external signal such as Aerotech’s Position Synchronized Output (PSO) feature.
Motion Control with Precision Noncontact Displacement Sensors
Noncontact displacement sensors are used in measurement applications where surfaces or processes do not allow contact and demand high precision. Capacitive, confocal, eddy-current and laser triangulation sensors have proven themselves in applications that incorporate motion systems.
