The production of servo motors and drives involves the manufacturing of these components. Servo motors, whether linear or rotary actuators, play a crucial role in controlling linear and angular acceleration, velocity, and positioning. They come in both brush and brushless types. Simultaneously, servo drives, also known as servo amplifiers, possess the capability to convert a low-power command signal from a motion controller into high-power current or voltage. These servo motors and drives find widespread application in the manufacturing industry, particularly in the production of line robots utilized in creating cars and airplanes. These robots are essential for carrying out high-repetition yet precise tasks such as welding, drilling, fastening, sealing, dispensing, and rigid manufacturing.

The primary categories of servo motors and drives are motors and drives. Motors, serving as rotary or linear actuators, facilitate control over both linear and angular acceleration, velocity, and positioning. They are available in both brush and brushless variants, with the latter being the preferred choice in today's context. Servo motors exhibit different voltage ranges, including low-voltage and medium-voltage. Various end-users, spanning industries like automotive, oil and gas, healthcare, packaging, semiconductor and electronics, as well as chemicals and petrochemicals, rely on these components.
