Engineers rely on motion-control devices to improve efficiencies and production rates on automated factory floors, or at least maintain them. One family of such devices, stepper motors, is widely used ...

Specifically designed to be used in satellites and spacecraft, vacuum rated motors can be used for communications antennas as well as vehicle controls. The harsh environment of vacuum and microgravity ...

The amount of noise in a motor depends on the type of motor, environmental conditions, and the specific application. Permanent magnet and hybrid stepper motors are generally quieter, as they have a ...
