Commutator motors - simple and versatile design
The simplest DC motor is a commutator motor, in which the supply voltage is fed to the rotor circuit through sliding brushes and the rotor element - the commutator, created by a package of copper plates. The current flowing through the rotor circuit creates a magnetic field that interacts with the magnetic field of the stationary stator made of permanent magnets. The continuity of rotation and direction of rotation is maintained by switching the polarity of the supply voltage by the commutator - then the current in the rotor circuit changes direction, which translates into the reversal of the magnetic field between the rotor and the stator. Due to its properties, the brush motor is universally applicable.
Brush motor - what else is worth knowing about it?
Thanks to their simple structure and the ability to control the rotational speed, commutator motors are particularly popular in power tools, household appliances, robots, and broadly understood automation systems. Our offer includes a wide selection of commutator motors in geared and direct drive versions, as well as a low-speed motor.
BLDC - a future-proof solution among electric drives
BLDC motors , unlike commutator motors, do not transmit power to the rotor via brushes. The stator is an electromagnet powered by direct voltage. The rotor is made of permanent magnets and, depending on the design, it can be built into the stator or rotate inside the stator. The voltage polarity is changed using a static commutator, which is based on transistors. The stator's magnetic field sets the rotor in rotation by interacting with the magnetic field coming from the rotor's permanent magnets. Brushless DC motors are a design characterized by high efficiency, durability and low energy consumption while maintaining smaller dimensions compared to commutator motors. They are used, among others: in electric vehicles, fans and air conditioners, electronics, as well as in RC modeling.

Stepper and vibration motors - ideal for robots and signaling devices
A stepper motor is a special type of brushless motor whose rotor rotates not continuously, but discretely, and is powered by voltage in a pulsed manner. Its technical parameters depend on the specific model. Applying a single pulse causes the rotor to rotate by one step, the rotation angle of which depends on the step resolution - the higher the step resolution, the smaller the rotor rotation angle after each supply voltage pulse. Stepper motors are used in broadly understood robotics, CNC machines, printers, analog clocks and vehicle components, as well as in industry. Another unusual design is the vibration motor, which differs from ordinary electric motors in that an asymmetric load is placed on its shaft, which, under the influence of rotation and its own mass, creates a proportional centrifugal force causing the motor to vibrate. Vibration motors are used in most mobile phones, game consoles, voltage presence indicators, and massage devices.
