Miniature automation requires miniature motion components. Ever-tinier machine designs have spurred the use of miniature motion components to build what are in many cases custom designs.

Welcome to this installment of MC² on dc motors. Recall that industry conventions categorize most of these motors as dc brush motors, dc permanent-magnet (PM) motors, or dc universal motors.

We explore in several MC2 features, the ultimate goal for design engineers is to build and tune designs for minimal vibration (free or forced) and render unavoidable system vibration damped (dissipated) or isolated.
