Application Example
Various DMM servo drives and motors are used across major blockbuster movie production automation requirements. Including stunt winches for human movement, automated camera positioning and lighting motion control. The smoothness of the DYN servo control allows cameras and lights to be positioned precisely without vibration or jitter.
The DYN2 servo drive is used across a product line of winches targeted towards stage and lighting movement. The compact form factor of the DYN2 servo drive allows installation into small, mobile devices that can be easily transported across various film locations. The reliability of the DYN2 servo drive also ensures the system is working even when large inertia loads are applied to the winches.
DMM servo drives and motors are installed across various major ballet and theater stages across the world. Driving the operation of curtains and lighting. The DYN2 and DYN4 servo drives ease of use makes them ideal even when the user has limited experience working with AC servo systems, which can be complex. The system can be operated with simple knobs and switches in analog and I/O commands and still benefit from the smooth, quiet operation of AC servo motors.
