maxon motor has added two gearheads to the GP 32 program. Significant improvements have been made to the single-stage planetary gearhead: The planetary carrier has been reinforced, the bearings have been repositioned, and a ceramic version is now available. With these new gearhead versions for high radial loads, maxon is now offering single-stage gearheads with […]
30mm DC motor from maxon
Haptic applications are well known in medical engineering, robotics, and aeronautics. For example: An active helicopter sidestick generates forces that provide tactile feedback to the pilot of a conventional system. Such applications require a special drive. maxon’s ironless winding and precious metal commutation were predestined for these requirements. The new RE 30 EB precious metal […]
Miniature dc servo motor controller from maxon
maxon precision motor’s newly released DC servo motor controller is the ESCON 50/5 OEM module. This mini OEM plug-in module is a 4 quadrant Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) servo motor controller that can efficiently control permanent magnet brushed DC motors (PMDC motors) and Brushless DC servo motors (BLDC motors) containing hall effect sensors, with power […]
Introducing the 4 mm micro motor and gearhead
maxon motor introduces the EC4, a 4 mm diameter brushless DC motor and gearhead. The typical issue found with micro drives of this size is the output power is too low for the application requirements because of the physical limitations. maxon increased the performance of this tiny motor using the latest winding technology along with […]
