In this video, Allient discusses motors for low-orbit satellite applications, including reaction wheel motors and gimbal motors.
Allient describes its reaction wheel motor as a slotless, high-precision, high-torque design with no cogging. A heavy inertial hub acts as the reaction wheel. When assembled, a series of these units can accelerate and decelerate to help control a satellite’s movement.
The video also touches on Allient’s motors for industrial equipment, factory automation and robotics.
