- **Caution**: 

### Q: What are the key differences between servo and stepper motors for industrial applications?
**A**: Servo motors use feedback systems (typically encoders) for precise closed-loop control, making them ideal for high-speed, high-torque applications requiring accuracy. Stepper motors operate in open-loop with precise step movements, better for lower-speed positioning where cost is a factor.

### Q: What materials are used in servo/stepper motor construction and why?
**A**: Electrical steel laminations reduce eddy current losses, copper windings provide efficient electromagnetic fields, permanent magnets (neodymium/ferrite) create strong magnetic fields, and aluminum/steel housings offer durability and heat dissipation for industrial environments.

### Q: How do encoders improve servo motor performance in automation systems?
**A**: Encoders provide real-time feedback on position, speed, and direction, enabling closed-loop control that corrects errors instantly. This ensures precise positioning, consistent speed regulation, and improved system reliability in electrical equipment manufacturing applications.

## 6. Manufacturing Compliance
