There are certain gear ratios which will perform to torque levels greater than the published values. When we encounter applications where greater torque is required, but space/cost constraints dictate...

Both AC and DC drives, simply put, control the speed and direction of an electric motor. Both technologies have been around for over 100 years. AC drives, also known as adjustable speed drives or...

Duty, or Duty Cycle, is the proportion of time during which a component, device, or system is operated under load versus the time at rest. The duty cycle can be expressed as a ratio or a percentage....

If you are unaware of your back-driving torque, further testing may be required. It is recommended that the brake which is identified to be used is verified to have sufficient holding torque for your...

Understanding your load characteristics: It is critical to ensure your motor or gearmotor is operating within the recommended torque parameters. To verify this, measure the current draw during a...
