Closed-loop motion systems can only run as fast as their sensors let them. And there are many factors that go into sensor speed. We asked the experts to explain what makes sensors fast, and slow, and how sensors can help or hurt motion system response. Here are the answers that will speed you on your way to a faster, more productive machine.

How do you define speed in a motion system?

Tom/Heidenhain: Speed has to do with reaching a predetermined point efficien...
