Haptics & Precise Motion icon

Empowering Perfect Feedback

ECM motors stand out in the realm of motion technology with their impeccable performance, boasting zero cogging and delivering smooth torque that surpasses the capabilities of conventional machines.

The elimination of cogging in ECM motors is attributed to their innovative design as air core machines equipped with PCB Stators that notably lack iron. 

PCB Stator

Supplying Optimal Precision

Motors designed with ECM’s technology showcase exceptional pointing accuracy and precision making them a preferred choice for applications that demand pinpoint control. 

With the ability to create actuators boasting absolute resolution, ECM motors empower industries with advavnced capabilities, offering a level of performance and reliability that is unparalleled.

Zero Cogging

ECM’s PCB Stator motors offer the exceptional advantage of zero cogging due the absence of iron in the stators core. Being an air core machine by nature means that there is no magnetics material within the core of ECM’s stator, no attraction of the magnets and therefore a smooth rotation.

Clients across a range of industries have advised that they were unable to discover competing technologies that offered the same level of torque while maintaining the absence of notable torque.

Precise Positioning

ECM’s motors distinguish themselves with outstanding pointing accuracy and precision, a feat partly attributed to the absence of a preferred position for magnets. The lack of iron in a PCB Stator ensures that there is no attraction between the magnets and the stator core. This unique design characteristic enhances the reliability of the motors, ensuring meticulous control and precise movements in various applications

ECM’s PCB Stator solutions empower applications with the capability to create actuators boasting absolute resolution. By integrating a 24-bit encoder, these motors can achieve a remarkable 16,777,216 discrete positions. This high level of resolution underscores the system’s suitability for tasks requiring fine-tuned control, offering a versatile solution for industries that demand both accuracy and advanced performance.
