The fourth industrial revolution: more of an evolution?

The Internet of Things has been hailed as the fourth industrial revolution, but can it warrant this title at its current pace of development?

Why Direct Drive?

To understand these benefits, we start with the basic concept of direct drive whereby the force of a motor is directly applied to a mechanism without any intermediate drive train such as a gearbox or toothed belt etc. The core working principles of direct drive motor technology is in essence based on the right hand rule of electromagnetism, whereby a current moving through a wound coil creates a magnetic field.
