German Bionic power suit prototype featuring Nidec-Shimpo’s super flat actuator to be showcased at exhibition in Tokyo (December 18-21)
Robots, no longer confined to factories, are becoming more and more common both in the service industry and in various household applications. As a result, the demand for motors, and the gears that accompany them, is growing rapidly. The Nidec company Nidec-Shimpo has taken this opportunity to tap into new markets like high-performance speed reducer gears for robots, and automated guided vehicles.
Following the announcement of Nidec’s financial results for the third quarter of FY2017, Nidec’s founder and CEO, Shigenobu Nagamori, held a presentation in Tokyo, Japan in which he discussed upcoming and ongoing trends in industries that depend on electric motors and Nidec’s approach to expanding production capacity.
Join Nidec on a video tour of our booth at CES 2018 and learn more about the recent industry trends and what the world's number one comprehensive motor manufacturer has in store for the future!
Nidec, as the world’s largest comprehensive manufacturer of motors, showed a full display of technologies for a diverse field of applications at CES 2018. Motors are needed for every single technology that moves, meaning that Nidec felt perfectly at home during what was their third appearance at CES.
NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE: 6701) and Nidec Corporation (Nidec; TSE: 6594; OTC US: NJDCY) announces the successful joint development of a technology that enables highly precise, real-time remote control of Intelligent Motors, motors incorporating microcomputers through a wireless network.
ST. LOUIS – In 2018, for the first time, high school students in FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics competition will be allowed to use Dynamo Brushless DC (BLDC) motors that will be supplied by Nidec Motor Corporation.
● With the emergence of the drone & robotics industries, the demand for motors is set to increase significantly. ● Nidec wants to respond to this demand by showing its comprehensive range of motors along with numerous demonstrations and other unique experiences at CES 2018. ● Nidec will exhibit at the drone & robotics corner of CES 2018 in LVCC, South Hall 2, booth #25835.
