In-wheel motor for AGV #In-wheel motor

Half the price of domestic equivalents! This is a next-generation in-wheel motor that reduces the cost of AGV development.

The in-wheel motor for AGVs and AMRs provided by Crew Co., Ltd. is an in-wheel motor that solves the cost challenges of hardware procurement. It offers an overwhelming low price of less than half that of domestic equivalents and has a delivery speed system that can deliver standard in-wheel motors within one month of ordering. It adopts a direct drive structure without gearboxes or belts, achieving noise reduction by eliminating backlash and maintenance-free operation by having zero wear parts. In addition to a wide range of sizes from 4.5 inches to 16 inches, you can choose in-wheel motors suitable for various applications, including polyurethane for indoor use, rubber for outdoor use, and mecanum for omnidirectional movement. It is the next-generation in-wheel motor that maximizes the robot's payload and accelerates development.
