Search other suppliers in the following categories:
AC motor drives interface controllers to AC motors. They match the control signals (voltage and power levels) as well as the signal type (analog or digital). They also provide power conversion, amplification, and the sequencing of waveform signals.
AC motors include single, multiphase, universal, induction, synchronous, and gear motors. They also include servomotors.  
AC servomotors are responsive, high-acceleration motors typically constructed as permanent magnet synchronous motors.
Brushless motors are synchronous electric motors that have a magnetically (AC induction) or electronically (DC) controlled commutation system instead of a brush-based mechanical commutation system.
DC motor drives act as the interface and power supply between a motion controller and a DC motor.
DC motors are most commonly used in variable speed and torque applications. They include brushless and gear motors, as well as servomotors.
DC servomotors are generally small and powerful for their size, and easy to control. Common types of DC servomotors include brushless or gear motors.
Gearboxes and gearheads are speed reducers that consist of a set of gears, shafts, and bearings in an enclosed housing. In converting inputs to outputs, they reduce RPM and increase torque.
Gearmotors consist of an AC or DC motor with an integral gearbox or gear head that steps delivered speed up or down.
Motion control software uses advanced algorithms for programming, monitoring, and optimizing digital motion control products.
Motion control systems contain matched components such as controllers, motor drives, motors, encoders, user interfaces and software. Components in these systems are optimally matched by the manufacturer.
Motion controllers range from simple linear controllers to complex, user-programmable modules that act as controllers within complex integrated multi-axis motion systems.
Motor controllers receive supply voltages and provide signals to motor drives that are interfaced to motors. They include a power supply, amplifier, user interface, and position control circuitry.
Motor speed controllers are electronic devices that control motor speed. They carry specifications for drive type, product classification, electrical ratings, and operating parameters.
Power supplies are devices that produce AC or DC power.  This grouping includes current sources, DC power supplies, AC-DC adapters, DC-DC converters, AC power sources, and DC-AC inverters.
Servo drives provide electrical drive outputs to servo motors in closed-loop motion control systems where position feedback and corrective signals optimize position and speed accuracy.
Stepper motor drives power unipolar and bipolar stepper motors in full step, half step, and microstep motion control applications.
Stepper motors use a magnetic field to move a rotor in small angular steps or fractions of steps. They provide precise positioning and ease of use, especially in low acceleration or static load applications.
