CUI Inc. has announced an addition to its next-generation modular encoder series that generates standard U/V/W commutation signals for vectoring current to brushless motors. Positional information for ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors offer some significant advantages over other categories of electric motors, such as brushed motors. Compared with the latter, which are cheaper, BLDC motors require a ...

Modern brush DC electric motors have been used in the industry for almost 180 years, but they have several drawbacks. Efficiency is compromised by poor brush contact and arcing between the brushes and ...

Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. announces a new full-bridge motor driver designed to drive low-voltage, brushless DC motors. Allegro’s A1448 is designed to allow the user to control several functions with ...

In a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor system, an electronic mechanism is required to commutate the system. Unlike a Brush DC motor system, the permanent magnet is located at the rotor and the windings are ...

The Jade family of pneumatic diaphragm pumps now feature an electronically commutated BLDC motor. The high torque and speed range of the motor allows stepless variation of pump performance — the flow ...

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 ...
