POTTERY WHEEL PWM DC CONTROLS
Gemini introduced the first commercially successful pulse width modulated (PWM) speed controllers to the treadmill industry in 1991. Today, PWM controls are industry standard and Gemini is shipping its fifth generation controls.
Key Benefits of Gemini Speed Controllers
- Quiet operation at an inaudible 16KHZ
- Smooth action – provided by Gemini’s patented motor inductance compensation technique
- Less maintenance required – motor brushes last longer and motor runs cooler
- Safety – provided by run-away protection and zero speed lock-out
- 115 VAC & 230 VAC versions available
