When and how to customize a standard servo motor depends on the predicted benefits derived from the customization that should include a solution tied to form, fit, and function. Learn more.
An alternative to customizing a servo motor is utilizing a frameless motor and integrating directly into the machine itself. Learn more in our new blog post!
There are lots of reasons to choose a frameless motor. They’re extremely compact, simple, efficient and precise. Is that what your application requires?
An explosion proof motor is clearly marked with a nameplate that identifies its suitability for a given hazardous environment. The nameplate will indicate the hazardous Class, Division, and Group for which the motor is suited.
Electric motors generate heat under normal operating conditions and have the potential to generate a spark if a motor coil fails. Excessive motor case temperatures or a spark that is not properly contained can cause an explosion or ignite a fire in…
