Tension is servo controlled in film advance system

Servocontrol device feeds film into a roller system. Two linear potentiometers connected to spring loaded tension rollers furnish servo input signal. Can be used in any continuous material transport system.

Servo calorimeter measures material heating rate

Servo calorimeter accurately measures the heating rate of a material exposed to nuclear radiation independently of the specific heat thermal conductivity of the material. The electrical power used is a direct measure of the nuclear heating rate.

Gilmour, G.↗

Miniature servo accelerometer is force- balanced

Miniature servo accelerometer measures unusually small forces of torques. The pendulous mass of the accelerometer is suspended by fused quartz torsion fibers in an electromagnetically force- balanced environment. It is used in gravity surveys for exploring mineral deposits.

Johnston, A. R.↗

Conceptual servo technique for controlling tape drivers

Electronic speed control design maintains magnetic tape in close synchronism at the airborne and ground stationed devices. Use of the servo system during the record and reproduce modes results in the minimum amount of frequency distortion and flutter.

Bentley, R.↗

Hydraulic servo system increases accuracy in fatigue testing

Hydraulic servo system increases accuracy in applying fatigue loading to a specimen under test. An error sensing electronic control loop, coupled to the hydraulic proportional closed loop cyclic force generator, provides an accurately controlled peak force to the specimen.

Dixon, G. V.↗

Low friction servo valve

Valve was developed using air bearings which provide frictionless operation. The servo valve is of the flat plate type with rectangular meter openings. Fluid bearings support the metering plate. The overlap is adjustable by means of a variable hinge block support.
