New gearboxes for electric motors in mobile machines
As part of its new, extensive eLION platform for the electrification of mobile working machines, Bosch Rexroth has developed spur gearboxes which vehicle manufacturers can use to unlock the full potential of new electric motors. The 1-speed spur gearbox (eGFZ 9100) and the 2-speed shift gearbox (eGFZ 9200) are installed in the central section of […]
Part one of three: Selecting regenerative resistors to harvest servomotor energy
Here we explain the data required for determining regenerative-power requirements and regen-resistor selection for the controlled motion of servomotor systems. By Hurley Gill • Senior applications and systems engineer | Kollmorgen Electric AC servomotors are either synchronous or asynchronous motors used in a closed-loop (servo) configurations for precise output control. Control over motion outputs — […]
Gearmotor enclosures for harsh environments
Bison Gear & Engineering Corp. has debuted its Bison Pull-Tight gear motor enclosure for demanding outdoor applications subjected to occasional underwater submersion. Originally designed for electric pool covers, the Pull-Tight has proven its exceptional durability in agriculture and many other environments exposed to harsh weather conditions, including flooding. This innovative solution developed by the Bison […]
