Finding the right motor for a specific application can be a complicated issue – especially in cases where there are a number of different versions of the same product. This can include the right type of motor – whether brushless, stepper or brushed DC is the best option, as well as the specific motor version. We’ll work with you to ensure we find the best possible solution for the project you have and can even work with our partners to supply a complete motion control package.
Whatever your application requirements we can help find the best possible solution for your requirement.
We’ve worked with a wide range of clients to replace PLCs from product design. We’ve saved customers £000’s by developing integrated electronic solutions that incorporate motor drivers and controllers with the wider functionality required for a product.
Examples include drivers with integrated GUIs, solenoid controls, data logging, safety outputs, temperature and current monitoring, as well as a whole lot more.
If you’re looking to cut costs from an existing system and/or simplify the assembly process then a PLC replacement project could be a good way of doing this. Get in touch with our team today to discuss your needs and we’ll be happy to arrange a phone call or meeting with our tech support team.
There is a major move across the planet which is being reflected in industry to reduce energy use in a range of applications. Perhaps the most common method for this within motor control has been the huge growth in the number of applications that are switching away from AC or brushed DC motors to brushless DC (BLDC) motors.
Brushless DC (BLDC) motors have the best power density ratio of any available motors and also offer increased levels of control and efficiency. On top of this, controllers such as the Zikodrive range can add a wide range of functionality including sensorless control, 4 quadrant control and more. This enables brushless DC systems to simultaneously reduce the energy use of a system and also increase the functionality of it.
