The Albany Gazette - ECM Introduces New Motor Drive and Controller Platform to Accelerate Adoption of PCB Stator Motor Technology

NEEDHAM, MASSACHUSETTS / ACCESS Newswire / November 12, 2025 / ECM PCB Stator Tech has unveiled a suite of more than six internally developed motor drives and controllers engineered specifically for PCB Stator applications, a major step in closing the loop between digital motor design and intelligent hardware control.

The new platform includes a growing set of hardware reference designs optimized for ECM's patented PCB Stator motors, enabling scalable, cost-effective, and high-performance control across a wide range of use cases, from compact servos and precision haptics to multi-kilowatt HVAC and robotics systems.

From Digital Model to Functional Motor - Faster Than Ever

By combining tightly integrated hardware, flexible firmware, and a software layer purpose-built for real-time control, ECM's new platform dramatically simplifies the path from simulation to fully functional motor systems. This innovation supports faster prototyping, easier system integration, and lower total cost of ownership, making the adoption of ECM's disruptive motor technology more accessible than ever.

This launch marks the next milestone in ECM's ECMpowered ecosystem - where software-defined motors, intelligent control systems, and compact, efficient form factors converge to redefine electric motion design.

"Our goal is to close the loop between motor design, firmware, and control," said Dr. Eric Ponce, Director of Research and Development at ECM PCB Stator Tech. "With this platform, our partners can move from digital motor models to intelligent, production-ready control systems in record time and with minimal friction."
