Does Your Motion Control Application Require

High resolution and holding torque?
Lower production costs and bill of materials (BOM)?
An improvement in the end-product's look-and-feel, weight and height?

New Technology Beats Electromagnetic Motors

The table below gives application CTO's, designers, and engineers a comparison of these two different motor technologies: stepper motors and PCBMotors.
For the full table, with more in-depth details, sign up for our white paper!

DC & Stepper Motors		PCBMotors
Conventional electromagnetic motor using built-in step motor functionality for position control (open-loop motion control)		Innovative piezoelectric motor technology for slackless movement in application (closed-loop only with position sensor)
Require more application ‘real estate’ Can’t be integrated on-board Require additional parts and mechanisms Have a higher bill of materials Aren’t conducive to thin, light applications Are constant power devices Lose torque with increasing resolution		Offer compact design possibilities Integrate motors & drivers onto PCB Do not require clutches, gears & brakes Result in lower Bill of Materials Will lower application height Only utilize power in operation-mode Maintain full holding torque in power-off Are more energy efficient Offer more accurate angular positioning
