Alva Industries (Alva), a manufacturer of frameless motors and owner and creator of FiberPrinting™ technology, has today announced a new partnership with RLS, the global rotary and linear magnetic sensor manufacturer, to provide framed motor evaluation kits for rapid motor and encoder testing and technology evaluation.

The evaluation kits are available for motor sizes 39mm,75mm and 130mm outer diameter, and include an Alva SlimTorq™ slotless motor and RLS AsksIM™ absolute magnetic encoder. Contact Alva today to make an inquiry.

SlimTorq™ is a range of torque motors ideal for high-precision and high-speed applications on land, sea, air and space. SlimTorq™ motors are manufactured by Alva’s revolutionary FiberPrinting™ technology which enables ironless and slotless motor windings with up to 60% copper fill factor, setting a new standard in precision, torque density and adaptability.

AsksIM™  encoders are non-contact high-performance off-axis absolute rotary encoders designed for applications with limited installation space. The compact units provide true absolute position measurement, with built-in self-monitoring and immunity to external magnetic fields.

“RLS encoders and Alva motors have a great synergy in terms of delivering high-performance in a compact and low-profile form factor,” said Martina Gajsek, Marketing Manager at RLS. “We are proud to collaborate with Alva to provide our products to OEMs enabling them to improve the performance of their systems for high-precision applications.”

“We understand that engineers are often working to tight timeframes and that every day in the development is critical,” said Nicolas Giraudo, CCO at Alva Industries. “That’s why we have partnered with RLS to provide readily available evaluation units so that our customers can quickly test and validate our technologies.”
