About us
We had the incredible honour of celebrating 40 years of motec—four decades of innovation, dedication, and precision in motion control.
Founded in 1984 as a modest, passionate team, today motec stands as a premier, independent UK specialist in servo, motion, flow, and sensing automation—trusted locally and globally.
Engineering Excellence from Component to System
Motion Control
At motec, we supply a broad range of motion controllers—from compact single-axis units to powerful 64-axis EtherCAT and PCI platforms by Trio and KEBA. Our systems support axis coordination, interpolation, and synchronisation via EtherCAT, ProfiBUS, CANopen, Modbus TCP, and RS‑232/485. Tools like Trio’s Motion Perfect streamline development and commissioning—making life easier for engineers like us.
Drive Electronics & Motors
Our portfolio includes digital and analogue servo and stepper drives from trusted names like KEBA, Trio, Metronix, Axor, and LAM. We support a range of applications, from compact drives for AGVs to heavy-duty industrial motors. Our offering includes AC/DC servos, steppers, direct-drive motors, frameless units, and fully integrated motor-drive assemblies—selected for performance and compatibility.
Power Transmission & Mechanical Actuation
To ensure reliable mechanical motion, we offer gearboxes, couplings (metal bellows, elastomer, linear, and safety types), and washdown-ready options. Our actuator range covers belt, ball-screw, and gantry types, plus rotary and linear positioners—enabling us to deliver full mechatronic systems.
Flow & Sensing
We’re proud to be Europe’s exclusive supplier of Super Metering Pumps—pulsation-free dosing from 0.13 ml/min to 230 L/min in SUS316 and Hastelloy. These are ideal for chemical, lab, and pharmaceutical use. We also integrate encoders and sensors—including Lenord+Bauer solutions—for motion, speed, and environmental monitoring in sectors like rail and renewables.
Engineered for Real‑World Applications
Our engineering team designs and delivers integrated systems combining motion, flow, and sensing technologies. Whether it’s synchronising multiple axes in automation or enabling precise micro-dosing in a cleanroom, we bring hands-on expertise. Our solutions are used in robotics, rail, renewables, packaging, medical, and automotive industries.
Ongoing Support & Training
We’re ISO 9001:2015‑accredited and maintain stock for rapid delivery. But our commitment doesn’t stop at shipping—we offer technical support, diagnostics, application programming, and tailored training.
Independence Means Flexibility
As a family-run, independent company, we’re not tied to any single brand. We choose components that deliver performance, value, and long-term maintainability. Whether supporting legacy equipment or migrating to modern platforms, we deliver future-ready solutions without vendor lock-in.
