Novamot integrates copper windings, planetary reduction, drive electronics, and spatial sensors into a single multi-layer PCB. Zero hand-winding. Zero complex assembly.
When the board is the machine, the parts disappear.
Conventional motion systems bolt together four subsystems from four suppliers — four interfaces, four points of failure, four times the cost and size. Novamot's design tools and patents let one PCB do all four jobs at once.

Why It Wins
Integration is what's hard to copy.
01
Integrated, so it's small
Motor, gearbox, drive and structure fused into one axial-flux body. Fewer parts, less volume and weight, fewer failure points — protected by our patent family.
02
Printed, so it scales
It all rides the mature global PCB supply chain. Every unit is identical to micrometer precision, and prototype-to-volume needs no re-tooling.
03
Designed, so it fits
Our optimization tools tailor torque, speed, thickness and cost to your application — from compact robotic actuators to drone propulsion.
The Physics
Coreless axial-flux — built for precise motion.
A PCB motor is an axial-flux machine whose stator winding is printed as copper traces on a circuit board — no hand-wound wire, no iron core. Removing the core gives it exactly the properties precision robotics, gimbals and drones depend on.
Electromagnetic FEA — every machine is designed and optimized in-house before it is built.
01
Zero cogging torque
No detent steps or torque ripple — smooth, sub-degree positioning and pointing, ideal for gimbals and precision actuators.
02
Low phase inductance
Current rises and settles fast, enabling high control bandwidth and rapid response — paired with GaN drives switching at MHz.
03
Axially stackable
Stack rotors and stators on one shaft to add redundancy or scale torque — without redesigning the machine.
Products & Roadmap
Proof today. Platform tomorrow.
Working prototype
Integrated-gearbox actuator
The PCB is the motor stator & the cycloidal gear. No separate gearbox — torque density up, cost and size down. Patent P24-1322
Concept
Monolithic quadcopter
Airframe body + four motors + the drive, manufactured as a single PCB. Radically fewer parts, mass-manufacturable.
Concept
Integrated gimbal
Motor + driver + position sensor on one board — a complete actuated axis printed as a PCB.
Patents in prep
Printed Stator Traces
Flexible PCBs that are the motor stator & the mechanical fixture at once. The board becomes the structure.
