Typically an outrunner motor is a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) torque motor. Therefore, the motor consists of a stator with coils and a rotor with permanent magnets. With conventional motors, the magnets are attached to a shaft that rotates on the inside of the stator coils. This is called an inrunner motor. With an outrunner motor the magnets are attached to a ring or sleeve on the outside of the stator coils. As a result, the motor has a rotating ring or sleeve, instead of a rotating shaft.

Magnetic Innovations is the expert in the field of permanent magnet synchronous motors. These motors are typically used for Direct drive Torque motor application which consists of a stator assembly and a rotor assembly. For the stator, there are several automated manufacturing solutions on the market that apply the copper windings fully automated onto the stator. But for the rotors, in order to assemble magnets, mostly customer-specific automation solutions are required, as there is no standard equipment available. Or, it is done by hand. In order to improve the quality of our production line, Magnetic Innovations has developed a robot cell. This robot assembles the rotors automatically and checks the end result for its specified magnetic properties. Read more

A direct drive torque motor is a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Hence, the load is directly driven without the use of a gearbox or transmission. This reduces the number of moving parts, and thereby increases the operational lifetime and efficiency of the application. Compared to induction motors with the same volume/weight, the peak point energy efficiency of frameless high torque motors is much higher. Magnetic Innovations offers a wide range of standard frameless high torque motors for many industrial applications. Read more

Fans are very important for industries where reliability in heating or cooling control matters. Multiple industries depend on standard asynchronous (ac) motors for their fans, but the landscape is changing. Companies within the industry are asking for something new, something smaller, with higher efficiency and a longer motor life cycle. To meet these demands and to guarantee the most suitable solution for your fan, Magnetic Innovations developed a high torque EC Fan Motor. Watch the video

Voice coil actuators have been around for many years, it is a type of direct drive linear motor. It consists of a permanent magnetic field assembly (permanent magnets and ferrous steel) and a coil assembly. Actuators are used for a wide range of applications. They compete most directly against moving-magnet rotary motors and pneumatic drives. Voice Coil Actuators can be designed in different ways. The type that most professionals are familiar with are the moving coil type actuators. But another type of actuator is winning in popularity, the moving magnet design. With this actuator the coil is fixed and magnet assembly moves. In this article we will compare the Voice Coil Actuator with a Moving Magnet Actuator. Read more
