As laboratory automation and diagnostic equipment become more compact and increasingly dense, robot selection is no longer driven solely by reach and payload.  Space constraints often dictate machine architecture just as much as performance requirements.  Engineers need robots that can operate efficiently in tight spaces without sacrificing speed, payload, or flexibility.

How VFD-Compatible Brushless Permanent Magnet Motors Address Common Challenges of VFD-Driven AC Induction Motors

[![How VFD-Compatible BLDC Motors Address Common Challenges of VFD-Driven AC Motors](https://www.orientalmotor.com/images/brushless-dc-motors/brushless-dc-motors-bmu-high-power-stator.jpg)](https://blog.orientalmotor.com/how-vfd-compatible-bldc-pm-motors-address-common-challenges-of-vfd-driven-ac-induction-motors)

Due to technological advancements, VFD users are no longer limited to AC induction motors.  Another alternative, brushless permanent magnet motors are becoming increasingly popular for their ability to reduce footprint, lower power consumption, and improve performance.  We know that replacing a VFD and motor takes more work than just swapping out parts, so we came up with a simpler solution.

This article breaks down the common challenges associated with AC induction motors and VFDs and explains how VFD-compatible brushless permanent magnet motors can address them.

How to Build a Better Multi-Axis Automated Screw Tightening System with Electric Linear Actuators

[![How to Build a Better Multi-Axis Automated Screw Tightening System with Electric Linear Actuators](https://blog.orientalmotor.com/hubfs/image-png-May-29-2026-10-45-13-0332-PM.png)](https://blog.orientalmotor.com/how-to-build-a-better-multi-axis-automated-screw-tightening-system-with-electric-linear-actuators)

Automating screw tightening is no longer just about speeding up assembly; it’s also about ensuring consistent quality, reducing defects, and enabling scalable production. For automation engineers, one of the most effective architectures for achieving this is a multi-axis Cartesian system that combines precise positioning, controlled pressing, and accurate torque delivery.

In this article, we’ll walk you through how a 4-axis automated screw tightening machine can be built using electric linear actuators, and how Oriental Motor’s integrated motor and actuator solutions can simplify designs while improving performance.

As packaging lines face increasing pressure to run faster, handle more variants, and fit into tighter footprints, automation strategies must balance precision, flexibility, and size. One effective approach is the coordinated use of compact robots integrated with machine vision - an architecture well-suited for highly repeatable tasks like bottle handling and capping.
