TruTech Applications
Made in the USA
If an off-the-shelf servo motor will do the job, use the off-the-shelf motor. Custom carries real cost. TruTech is the answer when off-the-shelf won't work: an IP or washdown requirement no catalog motor meets, a material constraint, a non-standard mechanical interface, an envelope set by an existing machine, or a program that requires domestic manufacture.
Typical triggers for TruTech
Defense, military & aerospace
Programs with domestic sourcing requirements, where an otherwise suitable imported motor isn't eligible.
Washdown & harsh environments
Special IP ratings and stainless steel construction.
Mechanical constraints
Hollow shafts, special mounts and envelopes set by an existing machine design.
Discontinued motors
Drop-in replacements for legacy motors and linear motor components.
Low-volume custom
Custom designs in small quantities that most manufacturers won't take on.
Example: a discontinued magnet track
TruTech published a project in which an OEM's linear motor magnet track was discontinued. TruTech designed a fully compatible, drop-in replacement from the original design, with no machine redesign required, and it's now manufactured in the USA.
