By Structure

- Stator: The stator is stationary and contains the windings. It envelops the rotor.
- Rotor: Inside the stator is where the rotor is found.
- Bearings: Support the rotor for smooth rotation.
- Housing: Protects motor components and often features cooling fins.
- Commutation System: Uses ESC and Hall sensors for speed and direction control.
By Rotor Structure
We provide slotless and slotted inrunner BLDC motors designed for high performance, precision control, and versatile industrial applications.

Slotted
- Slotted inrunner BLDC motor uses a stator with slots that house the windings, offering better magnetic coupling and higher torque density.
- Often used in power tools, automotive pumps, and fans.
Slotless
- Slotless inrunner BLDC motor eliminates stator slots, reducing cogging torque and providing ultra-smooth, low-vibration operation ideal for precision applications.
- Often used in medical devices, robotics, and small drones.
By Rotor Magnet Configuration
We provide surface and interior permanent magnet inrunner BLDC motors for optimized torque, efficiency, and dynamic performance across applications.
Surface Permanent Magnet (SPM)
- Magnets positioned on the rotor's outside
- Simple construction, easier to manufacture
- Produces nearly constant air gap flux
- Easier to control with standard BLDC/PMSM drivers
- Used in HVAC, fans, drones, and power tools
Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM)
- Integrated magnets into the rotor core
- Higher production costs and more intricate construction
- Air gap flux varies with rotor position (saliency)
- Complex control algorithms required (usually FOC)
- Better suited for EVs, industrial drives, and servo systems
By Control Method
Our inner rotor brushless DC motor supports sensor-based and sensorless control for precise, efficient performance across dynamic or continuous motion applications.
Sensor-Based (Hall Sensor or Encoder)
- Uses physical sensors to detect rotor position
- Precise position and speed control
- Reliable startup at low or zero speed
- Essential for low-speed or frequent start/stop operations
- Easier implementation of closed-loop control
- Common in robotics, servo systems, and EV traction motors
Sensorless Control
- No physical sensors; Rotor position inferred from back-EMF
- Eliminates need for physical sensors, reducing cost
- Requires motion (typically above 5–10% of rated speed) to operate
- Requires advanced controllers and tuning algorithms
- Ideal for fans, pumps, and applications with continuous motion
