Cannulated (hollow) shafts are now available with the company's size 5, 8 and 10 brushless DC motors, allowing fluids, air streams, vacuum, and even cables to be passed through the motors. The hollow ...

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 ...

With the increasing use of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), there is increased generation of electrical currents on shaft motors, causing electrical damage to bearings. Manufacturers and end users ...

This article was updated Feb. 20, 2023. It was originally published March 2, 2011. Engineers are constantly called on to select motors for the applications that will be able to do the task at hand and ...

The BLH speed control package is composed of a brushless DC motor and a 24VDC compact driver board. The RoHS-compliant BLH series encompasses four models at 15, 30, 50 and 100 watts output. The BLH ...

Motors controlled by variable frequency drives (VFDs) are vulnerable to electrical bearing damage. A savvy specifier will choose new motors that are already equipped with shaft grounding rings, but ...

The DC motor is widely used in the field of servo automation and robotics. The operating principle of an electric motor is based on the interaction of two magnetic fields that attract and repel each ...
