Powered exoskeletons are wearable robots or portable devices attached to a subject’s limbs, using principles of electro-simulation to first detect a subject’s movements and then replace or enhance them.

Exoskeletons commonly use miniature brushless DC motors with additional products such as gearboxes for attaining high torque and encoders for positional feedback. Typical application requirements include high torque, long battery life and the ability to work under load, e.g. in a seated position or on a staircase. Flat brushless DC and DC servo motors are designed for long battery operating time with a lightweight package, making them ideal to power exoskeleton applications.

• High torque with compact size
• Extended battery operating time, Long lifetime
• High efficiency with low power consumption,
• Low weight and volume, Ability to work under load

Gearheads for high torque and finer resolution, Encoders for position feedback.

These low-voltage BLDC motors deliver high torque at extremely low speed. They are perfect for applications—such as forward-looking infrared radar (FLIR)—that require simple control, very smooth motion, and maximum rate and position accuracy, while minimizing size, weight, power and response time. These motors provide a servo actuator that can be attached directly to the driven load. A permanent magnet field and a wound armature act together to convert electrical power to torque.

Lower noise, long-life, Self-sunction design, with Internal recycling ventilation, the heat dissipation effects of the motor is good.
