Brush Servo Motor vs. Brushless Servo Motor: which is better for my application?
By Warren Osak, CEO of Electromate A common misconception is that a brushless servo motor is always going to be a superior solution to a brush servo motor. In many industrial automation applications, this assumption can be furthest from the truth. A comparison of the benefits and drawbacks of brush and brushless servo motors is … Continue reading Brush Servo Motor vs. Brushless Servo Motor: which is better for my application?
