MOTOR
The direct drive motor is a brushless DC motor built on the shaft of the drum. The
elimination of belts and pulleys allows greater efficiency and reliability with less
noise and vibration. The use of direct current allows the MICOM to control both
the speed and the direction of rotation. There are no brushes to wear away as in
a conventional electric motor. Unlike a more traditional brushless motor, the
Direct Drive’s rotor surrounds the stator rather than being attached to it. A Hall
sensor reports the motor’s speed to the MICOM.
