With environmental, economic, geopolitical and environmental concerns making headlines, the concept of energy efficiency is gaining broad support across the globe. Efficiency is often associated with how the end user consumes energy, but it also has to do with how energy is generated and distributed. As BLDC motor manufacturers have their devices installed in products that operate on direct current (DC), the use of direct currents from DC sources avoids energy losses related to converting DC power to AC power and then back to DC power. With motors accounting for up to half of the planet’s energy consumption, brushless DC…
BLDC Motors take LiDar Drones to New Heights
The face of modern surveying is changing. In addition to using satellites and traditional surveying equipment such as retroreflectors and optical levels, specialists use remote sensing and UAV technologies to scan the Earth’s surface. One of these technologies is Light Detection and Ranging, or LiDar. Specialists perform the sensing method remotely to examine the planet’s surface using light pulses. The instrument contains a scanner, laser and a special GPS receiver. Rather than use an airplane or helicopter, scientists are taking advantage of drone technologies imbedded with BLDC motors to keep the aircraft aloft and powered to keep costs significantly lower….

BLDC Motors & Humanoid Robotic Applications
Despite the amount of work still necessary to create the kinds of robots seen in movies, humanoid robotics has significantly advanced over the centuries and in recent decades. Thanks to their smaller size, ability to run off batteries, and the efficiencies they offer, custom BLDC motors have contributed to the cutting-edge industry. The more life-like a humanoid robotic application is, the more sophisticated engineering is required of brushless DC motor manufacturers. BLDC Motor Overview A BLDC, or brushless DC, motor uses a stator with windings connected to control electronics, as well as a rotor with permanent magnets. It does not…
3 Benefits of Brushless DC Motors to the Industrial Engineering Industry
Brushless DC motors, or BLDC motors, continue to increase in popularity in industrial applications because of the numerous advantages they offer over their brushed DC motor counterparts. BLDC motor manufacturers commonly build motors for electronics, medical applications, computers, HVAC equipment, and automotive applications. In the industrial engineering industry, brushless DC motors are frequently used for automation and manufacturing engineering applications that improve overall productivity and quality. Brushed and Brushless DC Motor Differences Brushed DC motors use an iron core, commutator, and wire coils mounted to the same shaft. These elements are made of metal, which makes them heavy and likely…
