Brushless DC (BLDC) motors have seen strong uptake over the course of the last two decades, supplanting traditional brushed motors. They are capable of delivering major advantages over their brushed counterparts - including significantly higher operational efficiency levels and longer working lifespans (as they are not as prone to mechanical wear and tear).
