DC servomotors claim consistent torque
Direct drive brushless DC servomotors employ a novel electromagnetic design to improve efficiency, minimise size and maximise torque.
Typical applications include conveyor systems, food processing equipment, and factory automation.
The type -HG gearmotors are available with Bodine's 42R AC induction, 33A permanent magnet DC, and 34B brushless DC motors.
This new gearmotor design uses three stages of gearing, providing gear ratios from 6:1 to 110:1.
The gearmotor produces up to 1350Nm continuous torque and outputs from 3 to 23rev/min.
For increased radial load capacity and long life, the HG gearheads are unvented with needle bearings for the intermediate gear stages, and large ball bearings on the output shaft.
They also feature selectively hardened helical and spur gearing for quietness and high output-to-size ratio.
The gearmotors are offered with a variety of built-to-order shaft options, including single, double or hollow shaft configurations.
Hollow shaft units can be connected directly to the driven load, which saves space and eliminates unnecessary parts that are bulky and present alignment issues.
Type HG, integral gearmotors can be face-mounted from either side for maximum flexibility in mounting configurations.
