Alva Industries, a manufacturer of frameless motors and owner and creator of FiberPrinting technology, has announced the release of a new online product selector tool for its SlimTorq Lite and Max series of slotless precision torque motors.
SlimTorq motors provide the ultimate combination of power, size and precision, ideal for countless applications. SlimTorq units are available in a variety of size and configuration options as standard and manufactured by the company's FiberPrinting technology.
Alva says FiberPrinting is a groundbreaking production technology which enables ironless and slotless motor windings with up to 60% copper fill factor, setting a new standard in precision, torque density and adaptability. It also enables rapid product development of motors of almost any shape or size.
With the product selector, engineers can input their mechanical, drive and performance requirements including size, weight, supply voltage, temperature, continuous and peak torque, and speed, and the selector instantly recommends the best fit motor option.
"We understand that each application has a unique set of requirements in terms of motor specification," said Nicolas Giraudo, CCO at Alva Industries. "We're pleased to launch this new functionality that enables engineers to quickly find the right motor to test for their project. If the selected motor is not the perfect fit yet, FiberPrinting allows us for quick customisation and full flexibility."
