When designing a motor control circuit, it’s vital to determine how to deliver the high current required to drive the motor. Designers must choose whether to use monolithic integrated circuits (ICs) ...
Eurobike 2025 is really shaping up to be the ultimate launchpad for tiny ebike motors. We've already seen the high-torquing TQ HPR60 and the magnetically geared Star Union MGM that will be pitched at ...
The race is on to create an ebike motor that adds the least amount of weight and bulk as physically possible, disappearing away into the bike where it's barely seen or heard but is felt on every pedal ...
When developing a motion control system for a production line or piece of equipment, a common issue for engineers and integrators is having to mix and match components from multiple suppliers. To ease ...
However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...
When the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) issues the final versions of it its long-awaited fan efficiency test and efficiency standards rules over the coming months, it will apply regulations to a ...
Technology advancements in motor drive designs have opened many doors. For example, in motion control systems, greater precision, efficiency, and control provides many benefits in user experience and ...
Linear motors are synchronous motors: Current is applied to the coil to form an electromagnet. The coil then synchronizes itself to the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnets in the magnet ...
Editor's note: Japanese supplier Aisin manufacturers traction motors for hybrids and EVs. An earlier version of this story said otherwise. When it comes to electric vehicles, efficiency is money. Even ...
Earlier this year, Rivian expanded its plant in Normal, Illinois by nearly 20% to manufacture its Enduro drive unit. It’s an about-face from the drive units supplied by Bosch in Rivian’s Quad-Motor ...
