Servo motor sizing is the process of selecting the best motor for a servo application. Misconceptions engineers can fall into when selecting a motor include: sizing based on the horsepower rating of ...

In this 4th article on the ‘Journey of the electrical motor ‘, “we revisit our discussion on the relative angle between the magnetic fields. To achieve a particular torque value, we must maintain a ...

When it’s time to specify a high-performance motor that offers both precise positioning and cost efficiency, stepper motors offer many advantages over DC motors thanks to their brushless technology.

Safety-element torque limiters can help to keep machines up and running, especially when it comes to large-load applications. High-torque drive applications typically involve larger load inertias and ...

The case of a pulsating-load testing machine shows how to ballpark qualities that are important for deploying electric motors. Crankshafts in running internal-combustion engines pulsate as well as ...
