 Motion control is, of course, a broad field. And while we are involved in many aspects of it, our greatest experience is with electric motor design. We have invented and patented an electric motor design that has specific advantages when compared with conventional motors. Our focus has been on axial-gap, permanent magnet motor designs. The advantages of our motor technology are accompanied by unique inverter challenges which have given us opprtunity to cultivate expertise in inverter electronics and power electronics design. Applications that we have designed motors for include: velocity servo control, position servo control, propulsion motors for hybrid electric vehicles, a space shuttle electric auxiliary power unit, and motors for consumer power tools. The motors developed to serve these applications range in size from 3" diameter to 36" diameter.
