Three key indicators of motor selection for the three decisions

Electric motors are used in a wide range of applications, but for them to be fully utilized, they need to be selected. When selecting the right motor for your application, three key metrics should always inform your decision: performance, cost, and service life. We help you weigh these factors to find the motor solution that best meets your needs.

Performance:

Performance is the backbone of any motor's performance. It includes key aspects such as torque, speed, efficiency, and responsiveness. Carefully select a motor that will meet the needs of your application, whether it's a high-torque gear motor for a medical device or a compact planetary gear motor for an automation system.

Cost:

Cost considerations go beyond the initial purchase price. It also includes the total cost of ownership, including installation, maintenance, and potential downtime. The higher the performance, the higher the cost, so be sure not to overspecify when choosing a motor. Repair and replacement costs and maintainability should also be considered when selecting motors for long-term use in equipment and other facilities. Cost is also an important factor in selecting a motor. The price depends on the type, size, and output power of the motor. The quality of the permanent magnets, electromagnetic steel plates and bearings used also have a significant impact on price.

Service life:

The service life of a motor is basically related to the service life of the bearings. The main causes of bearing life are grease degradation and rolling fatigue. Our motors are manufactured with durable components and rigorously tested to ensure reliable performance throughout their service life.

With the wide range of Zhengke motors available, it's important to weigh performance, cost and service life together when selecting a motor. By finding the right balance, you can maximize efficiency, minimize unexpected expenses, and ensure the continued success of your equipment for years to come.
