Miniature motors

We are experts in the application, design and manufacture of miniature low voltage motors.

We specialise in brushed and brushless DC motors, gear motors, vibration motors and integrated encoder / motion control systems.

Our mission is to offer you the best value engineered solutions.

Motor mechanisms

In addition to motors we also design and manufacture complex mechanisms for many applications.

We are particularly well set-up to support medical device and instrument manufacturers.

YOUR MOTOR ENGINEERING PARTNER

Why Precision Microdrives?

Trusted motors and mechanisms

Getting the core of your application correct, first time

Motors and mechanisms are likely one of the most expensive lines on your BOM and also the least likely to be noticed by your customers. Until they fail… 

So, choose an engineering partner that has extensive domain expertise in mitigating the technical risks of these complex products.

Rely on a manufacturing partner with a presence on the ground, robust quality control processes, and a familiar approach to maximising your value-add.

Priced to deliver the best value

We engineer our products to be optimised for your application and delivered at a best value cost.

We don’t engineer our solutions to the highest possible standards, or the lowest possible costs.

That’s not the only way we help your profitability either.

Add a very technically experienced, cost effective addition to your development team. We will free up your internal resource to focus on more valuable R&D work, which will expedite your development cycles.
