Brushless DC Motors Boost Efficiency By 30%

Claimed as being 30% more efficient and 33% smaller than industry-standard packages, this new 98-mm series of brushless dc motors features a three-phase MOSFET Pulse Width Modulation drive. Surface-mounted components eliminate the need for external controllers.
The motors feature peak power capability up to 100W, encoder pulses per revolution of 50, and operating speed of 100 rpm up to 3,000 rpm (without dynamic balancing) or up to 8,000 rpm (with dynamic balancing). Available in 26W and 35W outputs with motor lengths of 43.5 mm and 48 mm respectively, the units are suited for use in packaging, web process control and industrial automation.
