We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Graphite",
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 Versatile DC motors provide smooth operation from
Ametek Technical and Industrial Products, which we summarised at the time by saying "Pittman series 9000 brush-commutated DC motors have two-pole stators that incorporate seven-slot skewed armatures to minimise magnetic cogging and enable smooth and
quiet running performance".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Bronze bushings embed graphite lubrication from
FTL Seals Technology: "Bushings exhibit excellent performance without external lubrication at both elevated and subzero temperatures".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Ametek Technical and Industrial Products
concerning its Pittman series 8000 brush-commutated DC motor
- take a look at DC motors minimise cogging
which says: "Pittman series 8000 motors are available in 53, 56 and 62mm lengths and achieve speeds up to 9020rev/min at continuous torque for standard motors at rated voltages".
Take a look also at the news release from Ametek Technical and Industrial Products, Small servomotors deliver high power,
as well as Compressor fitted to yacht from Boge Compressors,
and Gland packing cuts costs from James Walker and Co.
