    00:00:03 [Music] [Music] robots are doing more and more every day they're getting stretch to do things to adapt to different working environments do things like surgery and other procedures that are really high risk korgan has a long history in robotics some of the major players that many are familiar with we enabled them to

    00:00:29 differentiate with those Market leading Solutions today we understand what customers are looking for specifically in the robotic space we know it's around weight and torque density and over time as more players come into the space and it gets more competitive we see people trying to do things in a different way we're not only able to provide that more torque DSE solution that allows them to

    00:00:48 get smaller more lightweight robot we're also able to customize by working engineer to engineer with them to allow them to get the solution that they need exactly for the market to differentiate themselves for over 70 years we provided motion solutions from direct drive applications which are very typically found in robotic space but also more recently the need for high ratio gearing

    00:01:10 with zero backlash gear sets that allow for articulated robotic applications to take advantage of frameless compact motor designs and yet give extremely high performance to the robotic systems we're able to provide solutions that are virtually pre-engineered for Success quickly and at the same time costeffective Solutions and do it with optimize manufacturing practices on a

    00:01:32 global scale for long-term production requirements our robotic Solutions are modular and flexible and we can support an engineer to build a robot that's exactly fit for purpose for what they need we can enable a very small robotic startup all the way to a very large robotic OEM scale and support them to grow we have a very experienced development team we use modern tools and

    00:01:57 we lean heavily on a very capable supply chain and modern manufacturing processes to bring it all together into Power dense Solutions the present team that I'm working on has an excessive 140 years combined experience and emotion and we've worked on everything from medical to airspace and defense to robotics we understand how to optimize

    00:02:21 the geometry of the motion the materials and the design techniques the manufacturing techniques not only can we design custom solutions to match up to a specific app application motion profile dimensional footprint but we also have standard portfolio products so that solution could be a c Morgan frameless motor kit that they would integrate into their own design their own bearing set

    00:02:42 their own geared solution it could also be standard Servo Motors that could be matched with gearing and it could be all the way up to Complete Joint assemblies motion control is in our DNA because that's what we were born from and when customers choose to innov inovate it's like we're on the same wavelength we understand where they're trying to take their product by

    00:03:07 listening and working closely with them we can uncover some unmet requirement that the customer didn't even realize they needed to take into consideration and that's where Innovation really starts growing one of the things that I think drives this company forward and the people who work here is they love what they're doing they're taking on

    00:03:29 challenges that that are all over the place and the neat thing about what we do is we're involved in motion the world moves and we get to help it move and that's the cool thing about it [Music] [Music]
