Next generation Smart Industry and Manufacturing systems rely on compact and reliable, electrical precision motors. This need for precise motion control is driven by many demands now placed on the line, from moving products around on the manufacturing floor to the stations they are worked on to the logistics of moving the finished product through a facility. Having the proper motion solution can greatly reduce this pressure for the designer.
Modern BLDC motors are also used in a wide range of remotely operated craft – both flying and underwater.
This white paper provides an overview of BLDC technologies including the various types and shapes of BLDC motors, power requirements, batteries, and a variety of real world design options including use in harsh environments such as downhole drilling applications.
