Industry demand has spurred the use of small precision motors and linear actuators. Choose wisely. A few characteristics of dc motors maintain linear relationships that allow for very predictable ...

Learn important methods, formulas and calculation details to determine the power output of a coreless motor, the speed-torque curve of the motor, the current and efficiency plots, and the theoretical ...

Discover the fascinating process of generating energy from a DC motor using a gear mechanism. In this video, we guide you through the steps of harnessing mechanical power efficiently and effectively.

[Frank Herrmann] had an interesting idea to turn a geared DC motor into a servo motor assembly, but with a stepper motor-like interface. By stacking some small PCBs behind the motor body, it was ...

This is a small motor made from simple household supplies. A battery pushes current through a coil of copper wire under the influence of a permanent magnet. The coil spins freely when operating.

When decelerating a moving mass in a permanent magnet motor drive, energy stored in the mechanical system may be returned through the motor driver to the power source. If this energy is not properly ...

A loop of wire rotating between two permanent magnets generates DC and AC signals. This device can be connected to a DC power supply to run as a motor. Disconnect the DC power supply, if applicable.
