    Question Would love to hear about how quiet your servos are

    Tell me what system you have and if there is a SERVO HUM.

    If there noisy tell me how you tried tunning the servos and drives (amps).

    I have heard that Gecko 320's make noise, even after tunning?

    I think they should NOT allow the SERVOS to HUM loudly for sure...

    .
    If a servo moves in the shop and there is no one there to hear it, does it make a noise. (nuts)

    I have two motion card systems, Galil and Acroloop, these run DC servo's and DCBL, AMC and Copley Controls.
    There is no hum or buzz at all when stationary, I cannot detect any motor noise from the DC when running, the DCBL have a slight hi-pitch hum when running, A marked difference from the original velocity mode drives, (these are Torque mode drives).
