New EC042B IDEA Motor with CANopen from Haydon Kerk Pittman

Haydon Kerk Pittman now sells the latest addition to its popular line of brushless dc motors — the EC042B IDEA Motor Series now with CANopen communication-enhancing motion control capabilities. This new product combines exceptional performance with convenience and value … saving design engineers time, money, and space.

Save time using a pre-engineered, factory-configured and tested servo system: Engineers can immediately generate complex precise motion sequences via Haydon Kerk Pittman’s free Graphical User Interface (GUI) that provides an intuitive programming environment to quickly develop, save, and debug complex motion sequences.

Connections between the drive and motor are made internally, so users can simply connect power, optional I/O connections, and communications. Then the IDEA Motor is ready to operate. The EC042B IDEA Motor with CANopen or RS-485 communication is also stocked for immediate delivery on the online store.

IDEA Motor is integrated package of motor, drive, and feedback connections

The IDEA Motor is a programmable motor+drive unit that reduces motion system components by up to 75% per axis and simplifies machine troubleshooting. Engineers can further reduce design footprint by wiring sensor inputs and control outputs directly to the IDEA Motor, rather than through a control cabinet.

The programmable IDEA Motor integrates a precision brushless servo motor with an IDEA Drive controller in a compact package to reduce design time, wiring needs, and cabinet space, leading to lower overall system costs. The IDEA Motor is specifically designed for real-time embedded motion control and is suitable for autonomous precise execution of complex single-axis motion.

CANopen communications ports are integrated for highly flexible configuration capabilities, implementing higher-layer communication protocols and device profile specifications to synchronize motion among multiple motors. Please consult on new opportunities with Haydon Kerk Pittman Sales Representative or Application Engineers at haydonkerkpittman.com/contactus/application-support.

The EC042B IDEA Motor is available in three motor lengths, each with optional factory-configurable gearboxes. The wide range of reduction ratios and torque capabilities enable optimized performance of the EC042B IDEA Motor for unique motion applications that need precision and compact packing, such as lab automation, medical devices, communications equipment, semiconductor processing equipment, aerospace systems and many others.
