Most known for their versatility, electric motors have revolutionised the way we view the core definition of power, qualifying it as effective energy expenditure concerning work done over time. Among ...

To successfully follow a velocity profile, a motor and drive combination must generate enough torque to: accelerate the load inertia at the desired rates, and drive the load torque at the desired ...

Skid-steer-loader designers used to be restricted to cam lobe motors for propulsion because of the requirement for high torque, among other considerations. Now, one vendor has introduced an orbital ...

The importance of high torque to meet power-density requirements in robotics. The expanding role of spindle motors. NASA's CADRE robotics program. The three most critical aspects for motors used in ...

A special type of brushless motor is called a limited-angle torquer (LAT). LATs are constrained to produce torque through a rotation angle of less than 180°. But they are widely used to operate ...

The right motor and a modular unit can deliver high torque performance, accuracy and repeatability, plus easy implementation into articulating arms. If you’re planning to build a collaborative robot ...

There are many drive technologies and solutions available that are generally suitable in cases where a central opening is needed. In practical use, however, each has its own disadvantages. With hybrid ...

A frameless motor is essentially the active torque and speed-producing element of a conventional motor, but without the shaft, bearings, housing, feedback or endbells. It consists of two main parts: ...
