Brother Gearmotors, a division of Brother International Corporation that offers a wide range of ultra-reliable, sub-fractional AC gearmotors and reducers for the food & beverage, packaging and material handling industries, will use MODEX 2020 as an opportunity to showcase its lightweight, compact, and highly-efficient gearmotors, equipped with a best-in-class five-year limited warranty for all standard products – the longest, most comprehensive warranty in the industry. 

Brother will be featuring their Brushless DC Gearmotors which align perfectly with Automated Guide Vehicle (AGV) and Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) applications.

Brushless DC motors are cost-effective, compact and long lasting, and offer several advantages over brushed DC motors, including:

•Higher efficiency and a lower susceptibility to mechanical wear
•High torque to weight ratio (increased efficiency), increased reliability, reduced noise, longer lifetime
•Inside of motor is entirely enclosed and protected from dirt or other foreign matter
•Precise control of torque and speed
•Better control of acceleration and deceleration

The five-year limited warranty shows Brother Gearmotors’ confidence in the effectiveness and durability of its wide range of products. In the U.S., Brother Gearmotors parts are distributed and serviced from its centrally-located plant in Bartlett, TN. The state-of-the-art facility features on-site technology that not only provides expedited shipping, but also offers accessorizing and customizing for gearmotors such as sprockets, pulleys, connectors, extension cables and custom labeling. 

“Brother is thrilled to return to MODEX and showcase its solutions for the AGV and AMR markets” said Matthew Roberson, vice president of Brother Gearmotors. “These reliable, compact and highly efficient gearmotors fit perfectly into any organization’s workflow and are backed by an industry-leading five-year limited warranty.”
