Hi,

I intend to purchase these integrated servo motors: https://www.teknic.com/products/clea...-servo-motors/ and use them with such machine: http://www.c-n-c.cz/download/file.php?id=5384&mode=view

I am sure some of you are familiar with them, as also I know some of you have already made your own opinion regarding them.

What I would like to know is, can someone explain it to me what does the "800 counts per revolution. This equates to 0.45° of rotation per count" mean? This is motor internal encoder with 800 pulses per rev. Now I know this is not much but I would like to know what does this mean in actual machine/motion/practical sense?

This info can be found @ page 106 of user manual: https://www.teknic.com/files/downloa...ser_manual.pdf

Can someone explain to me how is this any different than using stepper motor with 800 steps per revolution with difference that in this case PID would handle any lost steps etc..?

This gives me a resolution of 0.45 degrees (if using 5mm pitch screw lead -> 0,00625mm resolution) in theory...

I apologise if question is weirdly raised or I made any brain fart statement, beginner here

Thank you for your advice.
