MOTION CONTROL AT THE SPEED OF TECHNOLOGY™
PMDC Motors
DC motors are electromechanical devices which use the interaction of magnetic fields and conductors to convert the electrical energy into rotary mechanical energy. DC motors are the most commonly used actuators for continuous motion and consist of the following basic parts:
- Stator: stationary portion of the motor
- Rotor: rotating portion of the motor
- Commutator: can be brushed or brushless
- Field magnets: provide the magnetic field that turns an axle connected to the rotor
DC motors are commonly used to drive equipment such as conveyor belts, elevators, cranes, turntables, and hoists. Electromate supplies a range of DC motors from top manufacturer, ElectroCraft.
Permanent Magnet DC (PMDC) motors are essential for a wide range of applications where reliable, efficient, and high-torque performance is required. Unlike other DC motor types, PMDC motors eliminate the need for field windings, reducing power loss and providing a streamlined design that offers superior torque-to-weight ratios. Electromate specializes in PMDC motor solutions that cater to applications in industrial automation, robotics, automotive, and beyond.
Why Choose PMDC Motors?
- Energy Efficiency: With fewer components and lower internal losses, PMDC motors deliver consistent performance while conserving power, making them ideal for battery-operated or energy-sensitive applications.
- Compact Design: The permanent magnets allow for a more compact and lightweight motor, without compromising on power, resulting in an excellent torque output relative to their size.
- High Torque at Low Speeds: PMDC motors offer high starting torque, which is especially advantageous for applications requiring precise movement control, such as robotics and conveyor systems.
- Reliability in Various Conditions: With fewer moving parts, PMDC motors are durable and perform well under varying operational conditions, reducing maintenance needs and ensuring longer service life.
