Incorporating Frameless Motors Into an Environmentally Resilient Design

Motion systems are often deployed into extreme environmental conditions — deep-ocean pressures, high-radiation and high-vacuum conditions, extreme washdown, hazardous atmospheres and more. Specialized housed motors can often provide reliable protection, but may not always meet application requirements for direct drive precision and compact form factor.

With a frameless servo motor embedded directly into your mechanical design, you achieve the ultimate control over your application’s size, weight, precision and resilience to the environments it will encounter. Learn whether a frameless motor is the right technology to meet your specific environmental challenges and, if so, how to incorporate it — from application configuration to design for manufacturability.
