Guides
These guides help you work through motor selection and sizing before you commit to a design: what to check for a direct-drive application, what's different about sizing a motor for a robot joint or actuator, and what to have ready before you open the Configurator. For a deeper reference on any single concept, see Definitions; for a step-by-step walkthrough of the configurator tool itself, see the Configurator Guide.
