Robotic Bartender - What Can a $99 Arduino-Compatible Controller and 6 BLDC Servo Motors Do?
Rochester, NY: Teknic’s Robotic Bartender uses 1 of Teknic’s new ClearCore controllers (Arduino compatible) and 6 ClearPath integrated servo motors. We challenged a small team of engineers to demonstrate the flexibility and power of the new controller. They came up with a robotic bartender that lets you order one of 130,000 possible drink combinations for the perfect cocktail. See the robotic...

Industrial Shredder Costs Significantly Reduced with Less Wear and Energy Usage
An Italian industrial automation control systems supplier has significantly cut energy costs in the use of an industrial shredder by introducing variable frequency drive (VFD) technology into the process. High electrical absorption was being created on start-up by an existing Star/Delta starter. This, combined with a lack of motor speed control, were creating high energy costs and wear on the...
