It used to be a staple of junior high physics class to build some sort of motor with paperclips or wire. A coil creates a magnetic field that makes the rotor move. In the process of moving, brushes ...

A brushless-DC motor is common in ceiling fan and pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera designs. But you can’t use the same brushless-DC motor solution for both of these end products. A ceiling fan driver ...

Your grandmother means well. But by the time she figures out something’s a fad, it is old news. So maybe you got a fidget spinner in your stocking this year. Beats coal. Before you regift it to your ...

Brushless motor technology has been the rage in cordless power tools the last couple of years. Every major manufacturer now sells a brushless lineup of tools, but is it worth it for you? Brushless ...

Much has been written about the process of selecting motors for applications in motion control. Motor selection can be complicated. The decisions to be made include whether to employ brushless or ...

Torque ripple reduction in brushless DC motors is a subject of intense study due to its significance in enhancing the performance, efficiency and longevity of motor drive systems across various ...

In microfluidics, motor selection directly impacts precision, reliability, efficiency, and overall system lifespan. The industry’s two main motor technologies – brushed DC and brushless DC (BLDC) – ...

Engineers have several choices to make when selecting brushless motors for their latest designs. Making the wrong choice can doom the design to mediocrity and failure in the marketplace. So to ensure ...

Oriental Motors has introduced sinewave drive vector controllers for its 30 and 50W brushless dc motors, improving speed tracking, reducing audible noise, increasing peak torque (15% for 30W types and ...
