#PartQtyWhat it does
1 Servo Motor 4 parts 1× Brushless motor with an integrated encoder or resolver, driven in closed loop to hold commanded position, speed, or torque precisely.
2 Telescoping Spline Shaft 1× Central spline shaft that extends and contracts while transmitting rotation.
3 Universal Joint 2× shaft end couplings
4 Encoder 1× Rotary or linear sensor that reports position and speed of a shaft or axis as electrical pulses or absolute position data for closed-loop control.
