‘Brushless Motors’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Micro stepper motors bring pictures into focus from EMS, which we summarised at the time by saying "Electro Mechanical Systems has supplied Precistep micro-stepper motors to Life Optics to allow it to develop a compact, reliable and light-weight head-mounted microscope.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Actuator system for sampling applications from Heason Technology: "Heason Technology has launched a low-cost modular actuator range for pick-and-place and sample dispensing in life science and other analytical equipment applications. ".

In November 2009, we covered the news from Ametek Technical and Industrial Products - take a look at DC motors engineered for transportation purposes which says: "Rotron brushless DC motors from Ametek, engineered for applications on board heavy-duty transit buses, coaches and other vehicles, deliver long-life power solutions serving up to 60,000 hours.".

Take a look also at the news release from Micromech, CNC router reduces time to market, as well as Centa offers bespoke transmission designs from Centa Transmissions, and Viscotec devises drive solution for dosage units from EMS.
