Allient Inc. Announces New Whitepaper on Motor Selection for SATCOM Systems
Buffalo, N.Y. – 16 July, 2026 – Allient Inc. (Nasdaq: ALNT) (“Allient” or the “Company”), a global designer and manufacturer of advanced specialty motor, Motion, Controls, and Power products and solutions for targeted industries and applications, has today announced the release of its latest whitepaper, A Technical Guide to Motors for SATCOM Systems, providing practical guidance on selecting motors for satellite communication (SATCOM) applications.
Read the new whitepaper on Motor Selection for SATCOM Systems.
SATCOM systems are placing increasing demands on motion technology, driven by the growth of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations and increasing demand for connectivity across land, sea, air and space. As these systems become more dynamic, selecting the right motor requires careful consideration of the application, operating environment and long-term reliability.
This whitepaper explores where motors are used across SATCOM systems, the motor technologies available, the engineering challenges they face, and the key factors engineers should consider when selecting the right motor, including pointing accuracy, performance, reliability, integration, space environment, operating environment and the growing importance of Size, Weight and Power (SWaP).
Allient combines decades of expertise in motor and motion technologies, helping engineers navigate the motor selection process for demanding commercial and military SATCOM applications. Our offering to the military sector is provided by our Allient Defense team.
“SATCOM applications require careful consideration of performance, operating environment, and system integration,” said Robert Mastromattei, Chief Commercial Officer & Group President at Allient. “This whitepaper highlights the key factors engineers need to consider when selecting a motor, helping them evaluate the trade-offs and identify the right solution for their application.”
