Meeting the Demand for High Power Density in Robotics (Download)

Read this article online.

The three most critical aspects for motors used in mobile robotic applications are high efficiency, high dynamics, and high power density. And when it comes to high power density, that means high-torque mechanisms that take up minimal space.

One of the best high-power-density options for mobile robots is the dc motor with a continuous torque rating. These types of motors, especially for robotic arms, will need a high startup torque for smooth acceleration in movement.
