Motion Control Advisory
CB Consulting helps machine builders and manufacturers navigate the motion control landscape — from system audits and component sizing to vendor selection and team training. Independent. Vendor-neutral. Experience-driven.
Who we are
Most motion control guidance comes with a product to sell. CB Consulting is different. We bring deep, application-level expertise in servo systems, precision gearboxes, and rack-and-pinion drives — and we use it to serve your project, not a manufacturer's quota.
Whether you're a machine builder trying to get a sizing right, a manufacturer dealing with unexplained downtime, or an engineering team that needs to level up — we work alongside you to find the correct answer, not the convenient one.
"The right motion system isn't always the one your rep recommends. It's the one that fits your application, your load, and your budget — and holds up in production."
CB ConsultingWhat we do
Every engagement is scoped to your specific need. Reach out and we'll figure out the right fit together.
01.
An on-site or remote review of your existing motion system — mechanical, electrical, and application fit. We identify sizing mismatches, failure risks, and optimization opportunities before they become downtime.
02.
Getting the sizing wrong costs you time, money, and credibility. We validate or build your gearbox, servo, and drive selection from the ground up — load analysis, inertia ratios, duty cycle, and environmental factors included.
03.
Navigating supplier relationships takes time and expertise most OEMs don't have to spare. We help match your application requirements to the right technology partner — without the cold calls and catalog reading.
04.
Empower your engineering team to size motion systems confidently. Half-day and full-day workshops covering servo sizing fundamentals, gearbox selection, inertia matching, and hands-on tool use — tailored to your product line.
Who we serve
Get your sizing right before it hits the floor. Avoid costly re-engineering cycles by bringing in an independent review early in the design process.
Unexplained faults, premature wear, positioning errors — we help identify root cause in servo and gearbox systems and give you a clear path to resolution.
Need to build internal capability around motion sizing? Our training workshops give your team the tools and confidence to make better decisions on their own.
