Software simulates complex motion
Detailed motion analysis tools and iterative learning control algorithms reduce following error and cycle times over multiple runs.
This makes the BM Series ideal for most applications, especially where downtime must be kept to a minimum.
The rugged construction also ensures that the Series is suitable for harsh environments, with the larger models providing IP65 protection.
Use of standard frame sizes makes it easy to upgrade from stepper to brushless motors, and the reduction in cost combined with the enhanced performance makes the BM Series the intelligent choice for most motor applications.
The attraction of the BM Series doesn't stop with the price: with a top speed of up to 10,000rev/min and acceleration rates to 270,000 rad/secı, the BM Series is capable of extremely high performance. Request a free brochure from Aerotech ...
