2nd Quarter 2016Electrical switching & drive systems & components
For applications demanding very high torque, drive specialist maxon motor is now launching its EC-i 40 DC brushless motor in a high torque version. The iron-core internal rotor drive is available with a diameter of 40 mm and delivers up to 234 mNm of torque.
When it comes to powerful movements, maxon delivers with its EC-i 40 high torque series of DC motors. The Swiss drive specialist presents three powerful iron-core internal rotor drives. The drives have a diameter of 40 mm and are equipped with an innovative rotor. They feature high dynamics, a low cogging torque and extremely high output torque. The strongest motor in this series offers a maximum nominal torque of
234 mNm and is 56 mm in length. It exceeds the performance of its precursor model by up to 70%.
Especially suitable for robotics
The three new brushless DC motors are cost-effective and ideally suited for applications in robotics, prosthetics and industrial automation. The compact design offers an excellent solution in applications with extreme space constraints. When needed, the EC-i 40 high torque motors can be combined with maxon gearheads, servo controllers or position controllers. The EC-i 40 series is easily configured and is also available through maxon’s online shop.
