The 18th Annual Motor & Drive Systems Conference

October 6, 2020

Motor & Drive Systems 2021 will provide the best forum to learn from industry thought-leaders on on the latest technical advancements impacting the design, integration and efficiency of motor, drive systems and motion control for automation, robotics, manufacturing and industrial, as well as utilities and automotive applications.

The live-streamed video presentations will provide in-depth discussions with interactive Q&A sessions. The feature-rich virtual exhibit hall will highlight the latest products and services entering the market. The Network Lounge lets attendees see and chat with each other throughout the event.

Track Topics Include:

Motor Design & Performance • Drive Systems • Industry & Applications Trends
Magnetic Properties & Applications • Sensors & Encoders • EMCW

MAGNETICS 2021 is a sister conference that is traditionally co-located with Motor & Drive Systems. The two events have a lot of synergy and attendees find value in being able to attend sessions in both programs. Although the events are virtual in 2021, the events will still be held together and your registration to Motor & Drive Systems grants you full access to MAGNETICS 2021.
