As the robotics industry continues to advance, the need for high-performance motors tailored for automation and robotic applications is on the rise. MOONS’ Industries, a renowned global leader in motor technology, has recently expanded its presence in the UK, offering a wide range of motors specifically designed for robotic use.
These motors are crafted to meet the unique demands of today’s automation and robotic applications. Let’s delve into the three main types of MOONS’ motors optimized for these purposes and their individual benefits.
Micro Motion Motors
MOONS’ slotless motors stand out due to their innovative design, deviating from the conventional slotted stator in typical brushless DC motors. This unique construction brings several advantages such as higher torque density, improved heat dissipation, and reduced cogging torque and torque ripple. These features are particularly beneficial in robotic applications where precise motion control and efficient thermal management are crucial.
In applications like humanoid robotics and prosthetics, MOONS’ slotless motors are integrated into each finger, enabling independent control of joints and degrees of freedom. This level of precise motion control, combined with exceptional torque density, allows robotic hands to mimic human movements with accuracy and dexterity.
Frameless Motor Technology
Robotics designers are constantly looking for ways to reduce system size and weight while maintaining performance and energy efficiency. MOONS’ frameless motor technology offers a solution by eliminating the traditional motor housing, providing high torque density and integration flexibility in compact spaces.
These frameless, brushless BLDC motors consist only of stator and rotor elements, allowing for seamless integration into robotic assemblies and space-constrained applications. Despite their compact size, these motors offer an unparalleled torque-to-weight ratio, enabling high-speed operation and dynamic motion control essential for advanced robotic systems.
One significant advantage of MOONS’ frameless motors is their customization capability, tailored to specific robotic joint configurations. Working closely with customers, MOONS’ optimizes motor dimensions and winding patterns to suit individual needs, ensuring a precise fit for diverse robotic applications.
