A robotic joint motor is the component that provides the torque and controlled rotation for a single joint of a robotic arm or manipulator. Unlike a standard motor, it is often part of an integrated actuator, which may also include a gearbox, an encoder for feedback, and a drive controller.
This integration allows for the precise, smooth, and reliable motion required in modern robotics.
What is the difference between a robotic joint motor and a standard servo motor?
A standard servo motor is a general-purpose motor designed for high-speed, dynamic tasks. A robotic joint motor is a highly specialized servo, engineered specifically for the demands of a robotic joint. This means it is optimized for high torque in a very compact, short (or “flat”) package, often designed for direct integration with encoders, brakes, and gearboxes.
What does 'torque density' mean, and why is it important for robotic joints?
Torque density is the amount of rotational force (torque) a motor can produce relative to its size and weight. This is the single most important metric for a robotic joint. High torque density allows you to use a smaller, lighter motor, which reduces the overall mass of the robotic arm. This, in turn, means the robot can move faster and more efficiently, or carry a heavier payload.
What is an 'integrated robotic actuator' vs. a 'frameless motor'?
Can your robotic joint motors be customized for my application?
Yes. We are an engineering-led company, and customization is one of our core strengths. We can modify windings, housings, shaft interfaces, and feedback systems to meet your exact performance, voltage, and space requirements. Contact our engineering team to discuss your project.
