![MOOG_-_System_best_practices.png](https://pages.animatics.com/hs-fs/hubfs/MOOG_-_System_best_practices.png?width=360&name=MOOG_-_System_best_practices.png "MOOG_-_System_best_practices.png")Moog Animatics is pleased to announce the release of the SmartMotor™ System Best Practices Application Note.

This document describes system design and installation best practices for the Moog Animatics SmartMotor™. It was crafted to highlight the important points that system builders should keep in mind when integrating a SmartMotor into the design. Because system design is quite complex, this document focuses specifically on those items that directly affect the integration and performance of the SmartMotor.

**This application note discusses topics such as:**  
• Grounding, Shielding and Noise Reduction  
• Communications  
• I/O  
• Power-Up Management and E-stop  
• Gearheads  
• Mechanical Considerations  
• Environmental Considerations  
• And more

This valuable resource is available now as a free download from the Moog Animatics website.
