A Direct Current (DC) engine is a rotating electrical gadget that converts direct current, of electrical energy, into mechanical energy. An Inductor (coil) in the DC motor generates a magnetic field that creates rotary motion as DC voltage is usually put on its terminal. In the motor can be an iron shaft, wrapped in a coil of wire. This shaft contains two fixed, North and South, magnets on both sides which causes both a repulsive and appealing force, in turn, making torque. ISL Products styles and manufactures both brushed DC Auto Chain Motors and brushless DC motors. We tailor our DC motors size and efficiency to meet your desired specs.

A gear motor can be an all-in-one combination of a engine and gearbox. The addition of a gear head to a motor reduces the speed while increasing the torque output. The most important parameters in regards to gear motors are acceleration (rpm), torque (lb-in) and efficiency (%). In order to select the the most suitable gear electric motor for your application you must first compute the 
strain, quickness and torque requirements for your application. ISL Products provides a variety of Spur Equipment Motors, Planetary Equipment Motors and Worm Gear Motors to meet all application requirements. Most of our DC motors can be complimented with one of our unique gearheads, providing you with an extremely efficient gear motor answer.

Motor Selection Process
The electric motor selection process, at the conceptual design phase, could be challenging but our engineers are here to greatly help. We offer a concierge approach to all of our DC motors and equipment motors projects. We of engineers use you to provide the optimal component solution. The next key points will help you determine and select the most likely motor or gear electric motor for our app. You can also make use of our DC Motor / Gear Motor Selection Guidebook to help us narrow down your precise motor/gear motor requirements.
Design Requirements – A style assessment phase where the product development requirements, design parameters, device functionality, and item optimization are studied.
Design Calculations – Calculations used to determine which motor would be the best solution for the application. Design calculations determine gear ratio, torque, rotating mass, service aspect, overhung load, and testing analysis.
Types of DC Motors/Gearmotors – The most typical electrical motors convert electricity to mechanical energy. These types of motors are run by immediate current (DC).
Brushed
Brushless (BLDC)
Planetary Gear Motors
Spur Gear Motors
Stepper
Coreless & Coreless Brushless
Servo
Gear heads
Motor Specifications – Once the design calculations are performed, and the application form parameters are defined, you may use this data to determine which motor or gear motor will certainly best fit your application. Some of the most common specifications to consider when choosing a motor or equipment motor would be:
Voltage
Current
Power
Torque
RPM
Life Expectancy / Duty Cycle
Rotation (CW or CCW)
Shaft Diameter and Length
Enclosure Restrictions
