Tiny 8mm motor amomngst new product introductions
Portescap's new products include a tiny 8mm diameter motor which delivers 50% more torque than other motors of similar size, and a range of miniature planetary gearboxes
Linear Motor Sales and Technology Partnership
API Motion has announced the completion of a comprehensive Sales and Technology Agreement with Pratec GmbH of Rohr, Germany.
Standard operating voltages range from 2V to 12V, depending on the motor size and configuration, with windings for non-standard voltages available to order.
Portescap offers SM-series motors with stack lengths from 24mm to 47mm, and stepping angles of 1.8 or 3.6, while the larger PJT-series motors are available with stack lengths from 39mm to 80mm, and with a step angle of 1.8.
Holding torques range from 28mNm to 205nNm for the SM-series, and from 198mNm to 785mNm for the PJT-series.
While standard SM- and PJT- series motors are available from stock, Portescap also offers fast deliveries on customised versions in both prototype and production quantities.
These bespoke motor assemblies can, for example, be designed to plug directly into the user's equipment, without the need for any assembly work or lead dressing.
This provides big savings on equipment build times, and also simplifies field servicing.
Customisation options include special windings, the addition of gearboxes and couplings, pre-forming of connecting leads, and the fitting of connectors.
Like the standard Portescap SM-series and PJT-series motors, customised versions are exceptionally competitively priced and, in most cases, offer significant savings over buying individual components and assembling them in-house.
