SUMMARY
To calculate the mass of a motor required for a specific torque, one should analyze motor datasheets to identify options that meet torque requirements. Lighter motors capable of delivering the desired torque typically utilize higher quality magnets, resulting in increased costs. Creating a chart that correlates weight and torque based on manufacturer datasheets will provide valuable insights into motor selection.
