    Electric Motors

    The RS range of electric motors has a variety of high-quality solutions to suit your application. Featuring a wide range of motor types that are more adaptable and diverse than ever before, it is important to select the correct motor and peripherals to maximise the performance of your system. We also have a Guide to Electric Motors for more detailed information that you may find useful.

    Selecting A Motor

    Electric motors are used in motion control applications to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. We offer a range of motors to suit any application, including small & miniature motors. Our range also includes Better World Products motors and drives, designed to improve sustainability and energy efficiency. Easily identified with green Better World labels

    • DC Motors: Available in either brush or brushless types. Brushless motors require less maintenance as the brushes do not require replacement and usually spin faster than brushed motors
    • AC Motors: Range includes synchronous and asynchronous induction motors
    • Servo Motors: Allow for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity and acceleration
    • Stepper Motors: Where motor speed is required to be in discrete steps

    Use our Stepper Motor Calculator to help you calculate the maximum speed, minimum time per step and also the maximum power.

    What Accessories are available to use with Electric Motors?

    In industrial automation processes, using accessory equipment for motors assists in operation and can also improve performance and increase efficiency. Some peripherals to consider are:

    • Motor Starters: control the amount of electrical power during startup. They can also stop, reverse and offer protection. Soft Starters reduce the torque and load during the startup phase to prolong the lifespan.
    • Inverters(VFD Variable frequency drives) are a type of motor speed adjuster used in electro-mechanical drive systems. The drive controls the AC motor speed by changing the input frequency and voltage. We offer Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) and Variable Speed Drive (VSD) varieties.
    • Motor Protection: Protect motors against damage by monitoring motor health during operation.
    • Stepper Motor Drivers: control stepper motor speeds.
    • Brake Modules: Stop motors in operation as an alternative to friction braking.
    • Motor Accessories: Designed to optimize performance, reduce energy consumption, and extend operational life

    Our extensive range of high-quality Electric Motors, Controllers, Gearboxes and Accessories is brought to you from industry-leading brands including Schneider Electric, Siemens, Allen Bradley and RS PRO.

    We also offer expert technical support, datasheets, and 3D models. Fast delivery, with same and next day delivery options.
