In machine automation, gantry control is required across a range of applications, from 3D printing to CNC machining. As precision is crucial, this places high dependence on the gantry’s motion control system. Focussing primarily on design needs for compact machines and embedded control, there is a particular need to look at the motion control profiles and features required.
