Orca Series Linear motors can sense position and force with a high degree of accuracy. We have put together two demonstrations that allow the user to input force and position measurements that the motors will sense and output.

Find us at Automate 2023 at booth 7009 to see the demonstration in person.

This demo, which will be on display at Automate 2023, shows the accuracy of the Orca series motors' sensors. The demo features two motors which are connected to a tablet running a GUI that we've made with our Iris SDK and Iris Controls. The first motor demonstrates the accuracy of the position sensors. Using the tablet, a user can command a position to the motor which will be read back onto the GUI. This can be compared to the reading of the calipers which are mounted to the motor.

The second motor demonstrates the accuracy of the force sensors. A user can place one of a set of calibrated weights on the motor. The GUI will read back the weight that the motor is sensing.

Each motor is only connected to the power supply and to the tablet via USB.

Come visit us at booth 7009 at Automate 2023 to see this demo in action for yourself.

The YouTube video titled "Position and Force Control with Orca Series Smart Linear Motors | Automate 2023" is a detailed demonstration of the position and force sensing capabilities of the Orca series motors developed by Iris Dynamics. The video is 1 minute and 14 seconds long and was published on May 5, 2023.

The demonstration features two Orca series motors connected to a tablet running a GUI made with the Iris SDK and Iris controls. The first motor demonstrates the accuracy of the position sensors. Using the tablet, a user can command a position to the motor, which is then read back onto the GUI. This reading can be compared to the reading of the calipers mounted to the motor.

The second motor demonstrates the accuracy of the force sensors. A user can place one of a set of calibrated weights on the motor, and the GUI will display the weight that the motor is sensing. Each motor is only connected to the power supply and the tablet via USB.

The transcript of the video provides a detailed explanation of the demonstration, including the functionality of the Orca series motors, the process of sensing position and force, and the concept of comparing the readings of the motor and the calipers. The video also includes segments of music, indicating that it might include visual demonstrations or representations of the concepts discussed.
