July 2011 Featured Products

Stepping Motors

PK Series High-Torque Type
Up to 50% more torque
5 frame sizes available
Encoders available
Now with new pricing
PKE

 

Now priced the same as our conventional stepping motors, the PK High-Torque, 1.8 degree stepping motors produce up to 50% more torque in the same frame size for the same price. With up to 5 frame sizes and multiple stack lengths available, the PK High-Torque motors allow for torque equivalent to a motor of the next larger frame size. Click here to learn more.

Brushless Motors

BLV Series
200 W or 400 W (1/4 HP or 1/2 HP)
Round, Parallel or Hollow Shaft Flat gear type
I/O or RS-485 Communications
Accepts battery input
BLV

 

The BLV Series DC Brushless motors provides a wide speed control range of 100 to 4,000 r/min and is available with a round shaft motor or with a parallel gear or a space savings hollow shaft flat gear. Accepts power input of 24 VDC (200 W) or 48 VDC (400W) and is designed for battery input as well. Also available in both a standard and electromagnetic brake type.

AC Motors & Gearmotors

Work K Series Torque Motors
Ideal for winding applications
Constant tension control
Geared models
TMP-1 Controller available
Torque

Torque motors are designed to provide high starting torque and sloping characteristics (torque is highest at zero speed and decreases steadily with increasing speed), and operate over a wide speed range. They also provide stable operation, especially in the low speed range or under a locked rotor condition. Torque motors are ideal for winding, locked rotor (static torque) or braking applications. For easy adjustment of torque, use the TMP-1 controller for winding, push motion or other applications where torque needs to be adjusted. Click here to learn more.

Linear & Rotary Actuators

EZ LIMO EZA Series Motorized Cylinders
Compact Design
Closed Loop
Repetitive Positioning Accuracy
24 VDC
DLR

The EZA Series, with a built-in LM Guide®, is a motorized cylinder offering improved performance and greater ease of use while maintaining a compact size. Simply install a load directly onto the rod, and this motorized cylinder will perform the push-motion and transfer operations. The EZA Series employs an AlphaStep stepping motor and controller system for tuning-free, closed loop operation. Click here to learn more.

Below is this month's "Question of the Month".


Q:
I'm using a size 17 and a size 23, 1.8 deg step motor for our micro fluid pumps, and in our new design, we need to increase torque by a minimum of 20% without increasing the motor frame size in order to increase my speed and throughput. I don't have an option to switch out our current driver, and we are maxed out on driver voltage power supply. I am having a difficult time finding a motor that works. Do you have any motor options you can recommend? We also have another similar application which requires an even smaller step motor, but with the same torque output as a size 17 step motor and with encoder feedback. Is this even possible? Please help!

A: I would suggest that you begin by looking at our High Torque step motors. These step motors can output up to 50% more torque when compared with other step motors of the same size in the market, and we also offer these with encoders. The improvement in torque output of these motors was a result from the optimization of our motor design as well as an increase in precision in our manufacturing methods.
