With a direct drive tool, all power from the motor is transferred directly to the output shaft.
A motor system in which rotational energy is transferred directly to the drive source without the use of a pulley belt or idler wheel.
The inertial fusion target is directly driven by energy from the fusion driver. That is the power from the driver couples directly to the surface of the fuel capsule. Although more efficient, this form of target coupling requires very precise beam aiming and uniform target illumination.

A method of driving a display whereby individual segments are all driven from separate electrical signals from the driver chip. Direct driving any display is desirable as it results in maximum contrast and viewing angle.
A shaft directly coupled to a motor. The shaft will turn at the speed of the motor, typically 1725 RPM for an electric motor.
A turntable drive system in which the spindle and platter are part of the motor itself.
In direct drive pressure washer systems the pump is connected directly to the engine. So, the pump spins at the same speed as the engine, usually around 3,800 RPM. This system has the advantage of being simple, with few moving parts; therefore, less expensive. The disadvantage is by having the pump spin as much as the engine the bearings get more wear and tear, reducing the life span of the pump.
A method of driving a display whereby individual segments are driven from separate edge connections.
An engine configuration in which the drive shaft runs in a straight driveline through the bottom of the hull.
The platter of the turntable is connected directly to the motor. This is more commonly used in DJ turntables because of the quicker response time..
Some auto iris lenses require a DC signal from the camera. These are known as direct drive lenses.
adj. of or pertaining to a combination lock with the drive cam mounted on the dial's spindle shaft
Direct drive is an LCD driving method whereby individual segments are driven from separate edge connections.
