New harmonic gearing on 1.8° flat PKP series stepper motors from Oriental Motor

September 16, 2019 By Lisa Eitel Leave a Comment

Oriental Motor now sells a new PKP Series stepper motor. The offering includes a 51-mm (2.0-in.) frame size harmonic gearhead for the 42-mm (1.65-in.) PKP Series 2-phase Flat Type motor.

This new combination compliments the 60 mm (2.36 in.) PKP Series Flat Type which is available with a Harmonic gearhead or round shaft.

Both frame sizes offer 50:1 or 100:1 gear ratios.

The 2-phase Flat Type is an ultra-compact and light weight entry to the PKP Series of stepper motors and is available in two frame sizes; 1.65 in. (42 mm) or 2.36 in. (60 mm) frame size. The Flat Type PKP Series stepper motor installs in a narrow space due to its flat profile design where conventional stepper motors would not fit. This makes the Flat Type an ideal solution for robotic applications that require a low profile motor with high position accuracy and repeatability of a Harmonic gearhead.

The new PKP Series stepper motors now uses neodymium magnet in its rotor design, which allows for lower vibration compared to the original PKP Series motors. For the optimal results, use the new PKP stepper motors with their respective CVD bipolar driver.

Since its founding in Japan in 1885, Oriental Motor has been a world leader in motion control systems.  For over a century, the manufacturer has concentrated on technological advancement and product design improvement — an emphasis evident in the sophisticated devices we market today.
