The physical world has become more digital than ever before. Almost all industries rely on measurement data, including manufacturing, construction, medical, & aerospace. To maximize efficiency & throughput within these industries, measurements are increasingly automated. These measurements need to be conducted quickly & precisely, without any variations.
Slotless motors are an excellent choice for precision applications because they have virtually zero cogging, & the torque is linear to the input current. Alva’s FiberPrinted™ slotless motors possess the inherent high precision of traditional slotless motors combined with a motor constant that rivals slotted motors.
Low heat development is crucial for metrology applications to ensure consistent accuracy due to the thermal expansion of materials. Automated metrology equipment relies on electric motors, which generate heat losses that increase with the speed of measurements. The motor constant, which is the relationship between power input & torque output, determines the heat losses exhibited by the motors. The high motor constant(Km) of Alva’s motors ensure minimised heat losses & precise measurements.
