BEI and ThinGap implement agreement
BEI Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq: BEIQ) and ThinGap Motor Technologies,
an early stage California motor technology company, have implemented a
strategic supply and distribution agreement for the purpose of development,
marketing and production of advanced motor products incorporating ThinGap's
patented motor technology. The wireless and slotless electromotive coil
technology bring the magnetic forces of a motor together in a unique way,
providing better efficiency for lower power costs and higher power densities
for more power in a much smaller package.
The agreement calls for ThinGap to utilize BEI optical encoder motor
feedback products and drive electronics for appropriate motor control
and servo applications. BEI will facilitate contract manufacturing of
motors and motor components, significantly supplementing ThinGap's manufacturing
capacity with high volume, automated motor production.
BEI Technologies is maker of electronic sensors, motors, actuators and
motion control products used for factory and office automation, medical
equipment, military, aviation and space systems.
