One of the perennial challenges of building robots is minimizing the size and weight of drive systems while preserving power.

The SDLM-025-070-01-01 and SDLM-025-070-01-05 direct-drive linear motors have built-in encoders, and feature: high acceleration, high speed, high resolution, zero backlash, and zero cogging. These ...

One of the perennial challenges of building robots is minimizing the size and weight of drive systems while preserving power. One established way to do this, at least on robots with joints, is to fit ...

With motor axial lengths as small as 10 mm and diameters up to 165 mm, the ULT brushless, frameless direct-drive motors provide output torques from 30 to 600 oz.-in. The three-phase motors are ...
