5 tips prior to designing the gear motors
We could say gear motors are considered to be a fundamental part in industry. Their applications are endless, and they have always been the central part of the most precise motions and displacements in machines. Thanks to treatments and breakthroughs in the materials used for their construction, in conjunction with new generations of electric motors such as step motors or servomotors, gear motors have never been as precise and reliable as they are today.
Quality management and evaluation of suppliers in industry
Purchase, supplier evaluation and quality management professionals, daily face the challenge of finding suppliers who guarantee levels of quality and service that are not detrimental to their productive processes, costs or company competitiveness.
Torque and power: what are they and what is their difference?
It is increasingly common to argue in electromechanical engineering projects about what is more important: for a motor to deliver a high torque, or for it to yield a high maximum power. These concepts, for most professionals or purchase managers, are not completely clear. In this article we will try to answer what each of them is. Make a note!
