Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motors are gaining in popularity and market acceptance. BLDC motors are used in industries such as Industrial Automation Equipment, Consumer, Medical, Automotive, ...

After only a few years of being completely immersed in the culture of motor drivers, it is very easy for me to take for granted the fact that most people are not familiar with electromechanical ...

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 ...

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) – ...

The motor and motor control markets are thriving in a number of areas, particularly medical and robotic applications. Also, there is a rich demand for small, efficient, high- and low-torque, and high- ...

Galil Motion Control announces two multi-axis servo drives that perform sinusoidal commutation: the AMP-43540 which contains four 600Watt servo drives and the AMP-43640 which contains four 20Watt ...

Brushless-dc motors are taking center stage in medical-equipment design because they last twice as long a competing technologies. • Sensorless brushless-dc-drives have evolved to a point where they ...

Replacing mechanically driven motors with electrically commutated solutions doesn’t come without specific design considerations. In the automotive sector, the use of electric motors in applications ...

Klaus Neuenhueskes looks at brushless DC motor control in cars and discovers that H-bridge controllers have specific advantages for designers. According to a recent report by research firm IHS, around ...

Transistor density has been increasing steadily, as has been described by “Moore’s Law”, with feature sizes of 45 nanometers currently in production. The most common form of nano-manufacturing in the ...
