The typical "inside-out" brushless DC (BLDC) motor provides greater output power, higher operating speeds and cleaner, quieter operation than its brush-type counterparts. BLDC motors are ideal for sterile environments—since there are no brushes, no particulate is discharged.

Because of their inherent reliability and long-term service life, BLDC motors can significantly contribute to lower overall cost of operation and maintenance.

BEI Kimco Magnetics offers a comprehensive line of fractional horsepower brushless DC motors that are currently manufactured in sizes from 1.1" to 9.0" diameter capable of operating at speeds in excess of 60 KRPM.

BEI Kimco Magnetics
A leader from the very beginning

Stats:

• Founded in 1974 Kimco Magnetics
• Purchased in 1984 by BEI Technologies, then purchased by Schneider Electric in 2005
• Design and manufacturing of electromagnetic components & systems
• Location: Vista, California
• Production Manufacturing: BEI Sensors de Mexico

Founded in 1974, Kimco Magnetics is one of the original pioneers to commercialize products made with rare earth magnet materials. Kimco Magnetics was acquired in 1984 by BEI Technologies and then by Schneider Electric in 2005, and was subsequently added to the business unit of Custom Sensors & Technologies in 2006. We have merged leading-edge capabilities and cost effective manufacturing know-how with highly personalized applications expertise. This combination has propelled BEI Kimco Magnetics into market dominance where we have remained a leading manufacturer of brushless DC motors and linear and rotary voice coil actuators for over 35 years. In that time, we have put thousands of BEI Kimco motors and actuators into products in markets ranging from medical and automotive to office and factory automation.

With a time-to-market as short as eight weeks, BEI Kimco Magnetics has maintained innovative, high quality products and holds numerous electro-magnetic patents. At BEI Kimco, we never lose sight of the value of personal service, expert design engineering, and product innovation.

Optimizing Motion Control Design

At BEI Kimco Magnetics, we integrate our expertise with customer requirements in motion control devices. Latest technologies range from Smart Actuators, to SERVO-SMART actuator systems, providing direct drive actuation for applications from factory automation, to low-bandwidth torquers, ideal for gimbal drives, robotics and other stabilized platform applications. It means faster, quieter, more reliable devices for semiconductor and medical equipment where throughput and life itself are critical to success. We remain deeply committed to solving your application challenges through technological innovation. Take our Spherical Voice Coil Actuator for example – Roll Pitch and Yaw motion in one device. Think of the possibilities. With our brushless DC noise attenuation patent – perhaps you may find it to be the right answer.

Answering Customer Demands

BEI Kimco Magnetics is dedicated to taking technology to the limit. At our Business Development & Technology Center, we challenge ourselves to create innovative ways to meet new application needs. BEI Kimco has developed brushless DC motors to operate virtually noise-free, ideal for user confidence in quiet operating systems and patient care applications.
