Need improved accuracy, reduced size and lower costs? 

Embedded DC brushless, frameless motors can meet your challenge. 

Increased demand for improved machine accuracy, efficiency, and performance with reduced size and cost has many OEMs searching for new and better solutions. In many applications these concerns can be addressed by using a direct drive servo system in which the motor directly attaches to the load.

Robotic Arm KBM

Embedded motors, also referred to as embedded motion or frameless part sets, are physically integrated into the machine and directly coupled to the load to be driven.

Learn more about selecting the right embedded motor technology in our new educational technology white paper, Utilizing Embedded Motor Technology to Optimize Machine Performance, Accuracy, Size and Cost.

How Prinovis Reduced Scrap, Increased Throughput and Maximized Machine Flexibility

Prinovis group is the leading gravure printing company in Europe, specializing in custom-made print-related communication solutions.

In search of new controllers for register control of a rotogravure printing press, Prinovis implemented a new motion control system from Kollmorgen that was easy to implement and produced a distinct competitive advantage with measurable results. In fact, by partnering with Kollmorgen, Prinvois was able to reduce scrap by at least 11 percent while increasing throughput by at least 13 percent when compared with their previous horizontal register control solution.
