1. Small electric motors and actuators

1.1 Industrial context

The need for small motors and actuators can be distinguished according to :

  • the need to move parts or objects;

  • positioning requirements ;

  • mechanical actions, such as machining and drilling.

Some of these needs are naturally met systematically by electric motors, while others correspond to a progressive substitution of electric solutions for previous solutions, notably hydraulic or pneumatic.
