MINIATURE MOTORS IN SECURITY
Utilising the latest technology in miniature motors for PTZ CCTV
PTZ cameras are the watchful eye over our public spaces, ensuring unlawful activity is placed under a microscope. They protect people and property and are a vital part of the security ecosystem.
Alongside many other security systems, these cameras heavily rely on miniature motors to drive the Pan, Tilt and Zoom systems. These motors are often the tipping point of what sets apart the best from the rest, offering better accuracy, efficiency, durability, speed and quietness - all great hallmarks of a great PTZ camera.

PTZ Camera Motors
There are a few commonly used types of PTZ camera motors, some are belt-driven, some direct-drive and others driven by brushless motors. Depending on the drive type above, you will notice differences when it comes to accuracy and how quickly the camera adjusts or comes to a stop. Noise can also be a noticeable difference, PTZ cameras are often measured in decibel levels.
