June 22, 2010 - Free Online Motor Sizing Tool Makes Sizing Motors for Applications Easier than Ever

Customers can choose from 15 application types at OrientalMotor.com

Torrance, CA — June 22, 2010ORIENTAL MOTOR USA CORP  Oriental Motor USA is pleased to introduce our latest innovation in customer support in the form of a new online Motor Sizing Tool. This unique and intuitive tool available exclusively from Oriental Motor provides customers access to an immediate online sizing tool twenty four hours a day.

The online Motor Sizing Tool is designed to make sizing and selecting a motor for your unique application easier, faster and more efficient than ever before. Located on Oriental Motor’s website, the form allows users to fill in their known application details such as necessary torque, speed, stopping accuracy, and system inertia.  Once completed, the forms then produce the necessary values customers need to select the proper motor, thereby eliminating the need to fax or email sizing requests. 

“Oftentimes there is some confusion as to what parameters are needed when sizing a motor for certain applications,” says Nick Johantgen, North American Technical Product Manager for Oriental Motor USA.  “The Motor Sizing Tool helps to eliminate potential errors and guesswork by providing a user interface that prompts the user for all of the sizing parameters required and returns accurate values for the speed and torque that engineers need to make the right product decision.”


Applications covered include:


  • Belt Actuator
  • Belt Conveyor
  • Roller Conveyor
  • Ball/Lead Screw
  • Lifter
  • Rotary Device
  • Arm
  • Door/Gate
  • Roller Feeder
  • AGV


The Motor Sizing Tool is designed with a friendly user interface that walks customers through the data input on all necessary measurements required for properly sizing a motor for their unique applications. At the end of the process, the system provides customers with proper sizing specifications calculated from the data input into the sizing tool. 

Once the system generates return values for their desired applications, customers can visit Oriental Motor’s online catalog to match their sizings to specific part numbers.  Users can also choose to submit these form(s) directly to Oriental Motor’s technical support team from Oriental Motor’s MyPage website for additional support or to have customer service process your order.

In addition to 24/7 support from the online Motor Sizing Tool, Oriental Motor’s Technical Support Staff is also available to assist customers Monday – Friday from 7:30am CST to 5:00pm PST.  For more information, please visit www.orientalmotor.com or call 1-800-GO-VEXTA (468-3982).

The free Motor Sizing Tool is available at: www.orientalmotor.com/support/motor-sizing.html
