Why
BLDC Motors
Shine in Demanding Applications
Standard and custom motor options for precise, closed-loop control
At Orbex, we offer a wide range of brushless DC (BLDC) motors for advanced applications that require compact form-factors, high rotational speeds and high torque. Featuring closed-loop control, these motors are ideal for robotics, packaging machines and medical devices.
Each motor incorporates neodymium magnets for smooth motion and minimal cogging effects. Additional features include optional incremental encoders to provide position feedback and Hall-effect sensors that provide electrical commutation. They also have IP51-level protection and require very little maintenance while maintaining excellent performance.
Ultra-Small Pancake Motors Keep Gimbals Moving
Perfect for modern gimbal systems in drones, UAVs and other aircraft, our thin, lightweight pancake-style motors deliver a high torque constant, smooth rotation and low-cogging operation. To see our other BLDC motor designs in action, check out our other videos.
Improve Performance and Cut Costs with Custom BLDC Motors
Custom motors have many benefits. For example, they can be designed to fit in tight spaces or handle demanding thermal, corrosive or electromagnetic operating conditions. Custom motor assemblies can also reduce the number of components on your bill of materials, lowering your costs and assembly time. Explore the benefits of custom BLDC motors — and see what’s possible — in our white paper.
Custom BLDC Motors — Available With Short Lead Times
No matter your technical requirements, we have your BLDC motor needs covered with an ability to quickly customize our standard units. Options include winding adjustments, holding brakes, feedback options, shaft and mounting options, integral gear reducers and connectors. We can also incorporate motors into assemblies with gearboxes and encoders.
All of our standard and custom motors are available with short lead times so you can meet your tough production goals.
