Qube-Servo 3

An integrated servomotor solution for undergraduate controls and mechatronics labs


The Quanser Qube-Servo 3 is a portable, fully integrated servomotor platform designed specifically for teaching control
concepts at the undergraduate level. The system is equipped with a high-quality direct-drive brushed DC motor, two
encoders, an internal data acquisition system, and an amplifier. Connect with USB to a Windows PC (macOS and Linux
support coming soon).
Qube-Servo 3 comes with a quick-connect inertia disk and an inverted pendulum module. You can also design
and 3D print your own module to expand the scope of the experiment, or create an engaging student project1. Take
advantage of the comprehensive ABET-aligned course material2 for MATLAB® Simulink®, or design and validate
your own controllers with additional language support in Python and C/C++, New features include the ability to disable
deadband compensation and direct control of the PWM duty cycle.
