About Taurus Motors

Our Mission & Services

Whether it’s Robotics, Autonomous Vehicles, or Aerospace projects, off-the-shelf servo motors just can’t cut it. Radial frameless motor kits get you inferior torque and power. If you are spending millions custom building your own radial servo motors, we can help get you something even better, at much better cost. We combine fully automated design and manufacturing with superior axial flux technology to get you a fully customized servo motor to suit your requirements.

Our Advantage

Our designs have 10% to 33% better torque density than the industry best radial frameless motor kits. We developed a highly parameterized tool that automates the Axial Flux motor design process, and quickly outputs motor component dimensions for your desired specifications. Using this rapid design tool, we can generate CAD files and ANSYS simulation files.

Accolades

Taurus Motors is the author of US Patent No. 10,594,235 B2 for Axial Flux Motor with Built-In Optical Encoder. Taurus Motors has completed the National Science Foundation regional Innovation Corps program.

Our Co-Founders

David Morse

David has 10+ years of experience in the fields of mechanical and electrical engineering, specifically power, motors, batteries, and instrumentation/control systems. He worked at the Indian Point nuclear power plant on various systems from motors to instrumentation and control modules. He decided to found Taurus Motors when he tried to find an axial flux servo motor for a tracking solar array project, and found that no such motors existed. David received a Dual Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2009. He is co-inventor of US patent 10594235B2 for an Axial Flux Motor with a Built-in Optical Encoder.

Eric Ginzburg

Eric has 8+ years of experience in mechanical engineering, specifically power, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and machine design. He worked at the Indian Point nuclear power plant on various systems from heat exchangers and pump systems, to motor-operated valves. He decided to co-found Taurus Motors when David Morse approached him with an idea for a novel servo motor design. Eric received a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art in 2012. He is co-inventor of US patent 10594235B2 for an Axial Flux Motor with a Built-in Optical Encoder.
