Oriental Motor Introduces New Planetary Geared Type for AZ Series Hybrid Step-Servo Motors

Torrance, CA – July 22, 2025

Oriental Motor USA is pleased to announce the launch of the new Planetary PN Geared Type for the AZ Series Hybrid Step-Servo Motors. This latest addition expands the geared motor lineup with a compact, high-precision solution that delivers zero backlash, ideal for applications requiring both speed and accuracy.

The PN Gear adopts a scissors gear system to eliminate backlash, achieving reliable, high-accuracy performance. With the introduction of low gear ratio models (5:1 to 10:1), the PN Geared Type supports higher-speed applications—overcoming the speed limitations of traditional harmonic gears while maintaining precision and compactness.

Key features:

• Zero Backlash Design: Achieved through precision scissors gear mechanism, ensuring highly accurate positioning.
• High-Speed Capability: Low gear ratios enable faster output speeds while preserving accuracy.
• Compact Size: By selecting a geared type based on required speed and torque, customers can reduce overall motor size and achieve a more compact system layout.

Additional Models:

• 28 mm Frame Size – Cable type, DC input AZ Series motors
• 42 mm & 60 mm Frame Sizes – Connector type, AC/DC input AZ Series motors
