We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Gearmotors",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Actuators provide human-level strength from
Precision Microdrives, which we summarised at the time by saying "Precision Microdrives offers simple DC solutions which aid the development and manufacture of medium-sized automation products".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Low-cost gearmotors are reliable and precise from
Micro-Drives: "For challenging OEM applications where reliability and precision are demanded, five gearmotor sizes offer a range of cost-effective solutions".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Emerson Power Transmission
concerning its HwN Series 3000 and MbN Series 3000
- take a look at Gearmotors pack in innovative features
which says: "Helical worm gearmotors and helical shaft mount gearmotors match critical mounting dimensions of common competing brands".
Take a look also at the news release from Inmoco, Rotary actuator suits industrial positioning,
as well as Gearhead supersedes worm gear from Zeitlauf UK,
and Motor company changes name and location from Zeitlauf UK.
