AC motors, steppers and fans in new catalogue
The latest product catalogue from Oriental Motors (UK) is now available, and reflects the shift from power motors to control motors, and from individual components to multi-purpose systems.
New brushless motors less than half the length
The all-new AXU Series of Brushless Motors and Controllers is some 55% shorter than its equivalents making it ideal for applications where space is at a premium.
The controller has full driver functions and lets users choose up to eight speed settings using four speed-setting methods.
It also has three speed display modes and lets users specify various protection functions.
Two models are available with gearheads, one of which is a hollow shaft flat gearhead for unobtrusive conveyor installation.
Both gearheads are rated to 10,000 hours at 3000rev/min.
A third model has a round shaft for custom installations or direct-drive applications.
The motor's design provides 120W output from a 90mm frame size across a speed range between 80 and 4000rev/min.
The motor and digital controller are rated up to IP65 when an optional remote control is used, which can be mounted on the front panel of a control cabinet using a 3 or 5m cable.
Aimed at conveyor applications, this CE-marked motor, gearbox and controller combination is for use where higher speeds and wider torque ranges are required.
The four speed setting methods will suit most applications, including internal and external speed potentiometers, with direct control from the digital controller or from an external voltage signal switchable between 0 to 5V and 0 to 10V depending on what signal voltage is being used.
The power and control cables are separate to make it less vulnerable to noise and let the wiring distance be increased to 20m with no effect on nominal performance.
