Motion Control Tips: IEh Series Motor, Used in Consumer Appliances
“Consumer appliance manufacturers have an opportunity to make an impact on the environment by designing their products in the most energy-efficient way possible," says Ben Schuler, Infinitum Electric founder and CEO, which is why we invented the IEh series motor.
Recently featured in Motion Control Tips, the Infinitum Electric IEh series motor with our patented PCB stator is significantly more compact and up to 50% lighter in weight compared to its traditional electric motor counterparts, without sacrificing performance. This can have a significant impact on more portable consumer appliances, such as cordless vacuums. Replacing the traditional iron-core and copper wire motor design with an IEh motor helps to improve the efficiency of the product with an added benefit: IoT connectivity.
“Infinitum Electric’s motors are designed with total efficiency in mind and integrated electronics and IoT circuitry pack a punch, making smart home appliances even smarter.”
—Anand Gnanamoorthy, industry principal at Frost and Sullivan
While implementation of IoT technology has been slower in industrial environments, consumers have have been quick to adopt smart home technology, connecting everything from voice assistant speakers to security cameras, doorbells, and even lightbulbs. Why not enhance that connectivity with insights about the critical components in your home appliances?
Motion Control Tips highlighted the following additional features of the IEh series motors:
- Acoustic volume as low as 45 dB
- 0 to 110,000 rpm operating speeds
- 10x longer life expectancy of PCB stator core
- Greater than 90% efficiency rating
- 0.25 mm/sec vibration levels
