Savings of between 20 and 40% over conventional servomotor/gearhead arrangements can be made thanks to the introduction of the fully integrated 'Stealth' servo gearmotors from Bayside.

A Bayside GM60 frame size unit will now cost less than £500 ($700) as compared to a typical motor gearhead combination which will cost in the region of £650 ($910), whilst a complete gearmotor servo axis including digital amplifier package with software will cost less than £1100 ($1540).

Bayside's compact, efficient servo gear motor simplifies installation by eliminating potential configuration and assembly problems associated with conventional separate motor/gear packages.

In addition, being available as both in-line and as right-angle units, with options for metric/NEMA configurations and special output shafts, flanges and/or windings, the Stealth gearmotor provides numerous space saving opportunities.

The Stealth servo gearmotor, designed with IP65 protection, combines both mechanical and electronic elements within a single housing.

The motor magnets are attached directly to the input gear shaft eliminating the extra couplings, shafts and bearings normally required.

This, together with the high efficiency of the brushless motor and precision planetary gears, enables the Stealth gearmotor to run 20% cooler than conventional alternatives.

Further, Bayside's planetary gear technology provides high torque's, low backlash, and quiet and reliable performance.

Consequently, it has enhanced reliability, improved performance and costs less than comparable traditional motor/gear assemblies.

Also, because Bayside manufactures both the motor and planetary gearhead, component compatibility is assured.

Options include 60, 90 and 115 frame sizes with ratios of 5:1, 7:1 and 10:1.

Units are available with high or low speed windings and in one or two stack versions for a wide variety of speed and torque ranges.

Encoders, resolvers and brakes are offered as standard options, without increasing the overall unit size.
