The rotor rotates due to the repulsive and attractive forces between this magnetic field and permanent magnets. Since conventional motors have an iron core, cogging torque (uneven rotation) can occur due to the attractive force that draws the iron core toward the permanent magnets.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, C.I. Takiron Corporation\u2019s Coreless motors have a structure without an iron core, enabling a significant reduction in cogging. This characteristic allows for smooth rotation and high-speed response, making them ideal for medical equipment and optical equipment that requires precise control.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 style=\"color: #fff; background: #c3effa; line-height: 20px; font-size: 23px; margin: 10; padding-left: 1em; padding: 1em;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 18pt;\">Motor Performance Requirements by Application<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The required performance varies greatly depending on the application.
