DriveCore Motor Platform
Engineering Versatility at the Core
DriveCore bridges that gap between the performance of our frameless motors and convenience of a fully housed motor — delivering ready-to-use housed motors and actuators, while still keeping the modular flexibility engineers expect.
Whether you’re prototyping or scaling into production, DriveCore lets you:
- Accelerate development with drop-in-ready designs.
- Customize without compromise: shafts, gearboxes, encoders, brakes, and mounting patterns are all configurable.
- Rely on proven cores built on Lin’s high-Km frameless motor technology for unmatched torque density and efficiency.
