Haptic applications are well known in medical engineering, robotics, and aeronautics. For example: An active helicopter sidestick generates forces that provide tactile feedback to the pilot of a conventional system. Such applications require a special drive. maxon’s ironless winding and precious metal commutation were predestined for these requirements. The new RE 30 EB precious metal […]

This mini OEM plug-in module is a 4 quadrant Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) servo motor controller that can efficiently control permanent magnet brushed DC motors (PMDC motors) and Brushless DC servo motors (BLDC motors) containing hall effect sensors, with power […]
Portescap introduces the 10NS brush DC miniature motor
Portescap introduces the 10NS brush DC miniature motor. These brush DC motors deliver spectacular speed-to-torque performance, ensuring high nominal torque and high power up to 0.7W in a smaller envelope than motors with comparable performance attributes. This enables OEMs to build smaller, lighter, and higher performing machines and devices. It also eliminates the need to […]
Groschopp Introduces An Updated Brushless DC Motor
Groschopp Inc. introduces an updated Brushless DC (BLDC) motor and several gearmotor combinations. Due to the lack of wear components, the BLDC motor is considered to be a maintenance-free, high reliability motor with a life of 20,000 hours or more. Typically only the bearings will limit a brushless motor’s life. With an outside square dimension […]
