August 02, 2019What is Torque motor? - 4 advantages of torque motors
In this video you get a short explanation of the characteristics and the advantages of a torque motor. So what is a synchronous torque motor? They are permanent-magnet direct drive motors that rotate along an axis. These motors can be used wherever a rotary movement is required and offer numerous advantages over conventional servo drives. The 2 main characteristics are a three phase stator and a permanent magnet rotor which consists out of a minimum of 4 poles.
4 advantages of using a brushless motor:
- Hollow shaft
- High precision and response
- Thin rotor, low inertia
- Direct drive - you don't need a gearbox, therefore its response is direct and of high precision.
Torque motors can play a pivotal role in increasing the availability and cost-effectiveness of many different applications in industries like: - Semiconductor - Printing - Robotics - Machine tooling. Check our website for more information about our motors.
