Hurst Manufacturing, Division of Emerson is an innovator in the development, production and application of precision motors. They are a supplier of permanent magnet synchronous and stepper motors.
Now as a strategic component of Nidec Motor Corporation, Hurst’s product development teams have access to all technology support functions of a world leading motor company. This synergy enables Hurst to introduce new innovative motor and control technologies, providing rapid solutions for our customers. The interchange of ideas and technologies between Hurst and Nidec has been exciting and has led to the use of advanced computer share-vision technology for communications on a daily basis. Hurst’s highly skilled engineers use Computer Aided Design (CAD) systems with Pro/ENGINEER and SolidEdge software to design customer specific applications. These advanced technologies allow Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Nodal Analysis capabilities to be used.
Initially, Hurst’s core business focused on instrument grade timing motors and assemblies, stepper motors and controls as well as standard line motors. Today the business has grown into manufacturing low-cost, high performance brushless DC servo motors for many markets, including medical and computer applications.
