Last spring, in response to California's recent electricity shortage, Governor Gray Davis signed a bill into law that provides financial incentives for upgrades that improve the efficiency of motor ...

Motors are elemental in the operation of any efficient system. They provide the muscle that moves manufacturing, and yet they often get overlooked when compared with the technology that is prevalent ...

Industry 4.0 is seen as the new era of manufacturing, combining technology, robotics, artificial intelligence and automation to create an efficient and effective manufacturing process. Industrial use ...

How far will an eMTB take you on a single charge? In our deep dive, we analyse the maximum range, efficiency and energy consumption of modern eMTB motors.

At COP28 in Dubai last year, the global community pledged to work together in order to collectively double the global average annual rate of energy efficiency improvements from around 2 percent to ...

Energy makes up 80 percent of the cost of owning and operating a motor over its lifespan. That’s why motor makers have spent decades trying to build ever more energy-efficient designs. But with ...

The key to equipment operating efficiently and effectively and having a positive effect on the bottom line is a connected, compact and versatile electronically commuted motor. ECMs are controlled ...

Adjustable-frequency drives have been billed as an energy efficient way to drive three-phase ac induction motors. Nevertheless, designers should understand that motors fed by inverter power experience ...

Most servomotors have an efficiency in the range of 50 to 60%. But it is possible to devise positioning-motor architectures that deliver far better efficiency. One such class of devices is the Maxon ...
